Ok this is my 1st time posting while I #ReadLesMis — please tell me I‘m not the only one feeling this way reading today‘s chapter! 😤 People are so cruel and despicable. Poor Fantine.

TheBookHippie People are unbelievably cruel. I saw it often being a volunteer doula for teens for 28 years. 4d
lil1inblue Fantine broke my heart in the musical - I Dreamed a Dream made my heart ache. Her story in the book is so much more devastating. 💔 4d

Cuilin Yes I‘m feeling all the😠 4d
tpixie Yes! Poor Fantine! 🥹🥺😢 4d
Deblovestoread Today's chapter was hard. Just heartbreaking. 💔 4d
DrSabrinaMoldenReads Yea. That had me all in the feels 4d
JenlovesJT47 @TheBookHippie @lil1inblue @Cuilin @tpixie @Deblovestoread @DrSabrinaMoldenReads glad I‘m not alone! I really know nothing about this story other than the names of the main characters (saw the first 20 minutes of the movie 😳), so I‘m really looking forward to reading the rest of this. I read 5 extra chapters today 😬. Poor Fantine. The tooth thing makes me irrationally angry 😤 4d
TheBookHippie @JenlovesJT47 it‘s so unbearably sad. 4d
DrSabrinaMoldenReads There are heartwarming events to come. That‘s what I have begun to love about the book. Capturing life's complexities @tpixie @TheBookHippie @Cuilin @dabbe @Deblovestoread (edited) 3d
JenlovesJT47 @DrSabrinaMoldenReads yay I‘m glad to hear it! 🤗 3d

I resonated with this…Time seems to have started to move faster. I need some way to slow it down. #ReadLesMis

I loved this chapter: “Mix Two Unhappy People Together and You Get Happiness”
I believe this happens a lot. #ReadLesMis

TheBookHippie Same. 6d

It‘s interesting that the French novels, Les Miserables and The Count of Monte Cristo have several elements in common. #ReadLesMis

Texreader Oh I‘d be interested in exploring this thought with you. I loved the Count but couldn‘t get through Les Mis. 2w
TheBookHippie I saw similarities with Anna Karenina as well. Count is not my favorite and the only Dumas I enjoyed was Black Tulip. However, the perceived main themes are similar at times and even with types of people. 2w
DrSabrinaMoldenReads @TheBookHippie Wow! The Count of Monte Cristo and Anna Karenina are my favorite books. The Count moved Anna to No.2. I still have a crush on him. 😆 2w

DrSabrinaMoldenReads @Texreader To me, Les Mis is not at the same level at all to the Count. When I got the modern translation of Les MIs, I like it a lot better. 2w
Texreader @DrSabrinaMoldenReads How I loved the Count!! 2w
TheBookHippie @DrSabrinaMoldenReads The backgrounds have some similarities Anna & Les Mis, and the treatment of women… probably because I just reread Anna it seems familiar. It‘s an interesting thought process to explore. 2w
TheBookHippie @DrSabrinaMoldenReads The Count is my niece‘s favorite book, she adores him as well!! 2w
dabbe Which translation of the Count would y'all recommend? 🤔 2w
DrSabrinaMoldenReads I had the Penguin Classic and loved it @dabbe 2w
DrSabrinaMoldenReads Come to think of it, it reminds me of Anna in terms of the intensity of the feelings @TheBookHippie (edited) 2w
