So much has happened oh god. I can't stop thinking about Jean Valjean and Cosette.

Part 1, Book 4 - Done

4 miserable and wretched people in 4 books and the two that broke my heart the most are Fantine and Cosette.

The last chapter of book 4... so that's where the iconic painting of Les Misérables comes from. Poor Alouette sweeping the streets with broom bigger than her little body.

Chiyojo hit way too close to home that it felt like the story was based on me and then I read the next story "Shame" and got hit by it like a bus. I hate Dazai's stories so much (i love them more than anything in the world).

La Femme de Villon was the most entertaining except the last part... that was something else.

The casual racism of the narrator and the maid we're supposed to like is a bit... Did the author not do ANY research about the sub-continent?

I love everything this man writes. I love love love the way he writes women, though I do wonder, how does a man know so much about what women feel and think about? How is he so aware of female despairs? He just never misses anything!

I can sense a love triangle forming

Well I'm not finishing this book now because I just found out the author is pro-genocide (pro-israeli). Should've researched about her before, now i just feel bad for purchasing the book itself.

Wasted my time

Jude's backstory... I wonder how many children are tortured and wounded forever in churches, mosques, mandirs and all the other places where men claim god resides himself. If those are the places where god is really found then hell is a hundred times better than them.

That G.P. guy is pretty funny

Now reading the girl's POV. She has begun to sound more and more like that one from Sputnik Sweetheart.

This is the first novel i've read in which the male lead is treated like a side character like please give him more scenes (≧口≦)ノ

Mr Elliot is really getting on my nerves now.

"Do not you think, Miss Elliot, we had better try to get him to Bath?"

FINALLY

this Elliot getting real friendly with Anne I see

I think either this Benwick guy or Mr Elliot is more suitable for Anne. Wentworth, on the other hand... yeah idk. I liked him in the beginning but now he's being a bit annoying.

I thought she actually died; would've been funny
