Marissa’s Reviews > Les Misérables > Status Update

166 pages left in the edition that I’m reading and we’re at the point somewhat near Bring Him Home and Javert’s Soliloquy. I have a goal to finish this by end of day Monday.

Gavroche is surviving longer in this book than in the musical and it’s stressing me out because now I’m not sure what’s to become of him.

Don’t you fret, monsieur Marius..I don’t feel any pain. (We have come to the source material for A Little Fall of Rain)

Finally at the barricades with 300 pages remaining (my edition and the one goodreads defaulted to have different page numbers)

Lamarque is ill and fading fast, won’t last the weekend so they say.

Inching closer to the end of the book (350 pages left!).

Eponine is hotter and poorer than when we last saw her and she’s still absolutely obsessed with Marius.

The source material for The Plumet Attack and I’m INVESTED

Somewhere before “in my life/a heart full of love” . We’re finally reintroduced to older Epoinne and the beginning of the yearning she has for Marius. And Marius is such a creep towards Cosette but in an endearing dumb lovable way.

Almost halfway?!
