Thoughts While Reading Les Mis P5
For chapter ten we  got a new reader for the audiobook an it gave me a heart attack
Book One - Chapter Nine
Their feminine instincts are easily alarmed
I don’t know i feel like there’s....a metaphor in there somewhere
What is the point in having both Mademoiselle Baptistine and Madame Magloire I don’t think we needed both but then again it isn’t my book.
So when  Monseigneur Bienvenu so will his sister??? Oh dear
Book One - Chapter Ten:
What’s the Convention? (just read up on it and wow thats kinda interesting Hugo I’m intrigued (also I feel like I should have known that but I never learnt about the French Revolution at school))
Quasi-regicide oof
G- is a smart man
Oh my goodness they really don’t like this poor man
‘I’ll be fine...but i am going to die in three hours’ - G- 1814(ish)
Something tells me Hugo either really didn’t like the Convention or really loved the Convention and I can’t tell which one...
I am 100% not taking notes on how to correctly overthrow the monarchy right now i have no clue what you mean
Wait they killed a child? oh gosh I don’t condone child murder. Nono.
I don’t know who these people are but I’m pretty sure are all bad aha
G- has a big brain and i like him
Monseigneur Bienvenu: ‘I want your blessing’ G- *dies*
