thanks. It’s actually Armchair BEA in 2014 that launched me. I wish I had time to do more

I read the unabridged of Les Mis and I honestly don’t like what I like most in it at all. My knowledge of the musical is what pushed me to finish it in less than one summer: that summer was in 2015. I love the story of hope, love, compassion, forgiveness, sacrifice, humanity, and redemption. Well, what I like most perhaps is that it gave me a bigger appreciation of the musical.
