(And I read the abridged... gasp... but the full version has tons of political stuff and I hear that you don't lose much by reading the other. I don't know.)Sueyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02926501219758538615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4065449396547182737.post-7119802555208091972011-09-21T23:36:42.579-05:002011-09-21T23:36:42.579-05:00Suey, does the play follow the book very well?Suey, does the play follow the book very well?Megan D.

You know I'm crazy in love with this show. And Javert, isn't he the best villain ever? LOVE him. The scene you talk about gives me chills every single time. Actually I get chills through the whole show. Sorry your seats weren't the best. Go again another time, you will love it even more. And the book, yes, do read it.Sueyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02926501219758538615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4065449396547182737.post-36971103212755720182011-09-21T22:59:05.889-05:002011-09-21T22:59:05.889-05:00Definitely see it when you get the chance.My husba...Definitely see it when you get the chance.<br>My husband's experience with it was not as positive. As we were walking back to our car, he said, "Okay, forgive my ignorance, but what the heck was that about?" He couldn't understand the songs, which of course completely ruined his understanding of the play. It loses its emotional impact when you don't know what they're singing about.Megan D.

Nice list of books. I liked Mistwood and When You Reach Me.Jennyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05738740015526095835noreply@blogger.com
