Les Miserables...or Mes Miserables?

Would it be a sacrilege to watch Les Miserables before I read the novel?  Yes, I know, it would be; I just wish I could remember if I read it in school or not--and that is why I should read it.  It's a beast of a novel unabridged; perhaps I should try and find a large print version?  No, that won't work...then it will only be longer!

What if I were to sing all the songs from Les Miserable, the musical in stead?  I sang those in choir years ago.  I would much prefer that...can you tell I'm procrastinating?  February 2 and I haven't yet started to read it.  That means I only have 27 days to read it; this means I would need to read an average number of 54 pages a day. Yikes.  Well, let's hope I become engrossed in the novel and don't notice pages 100, 200...

Did you know there is a "Forever Young" official Les Miserables Tour website? Les Miserables.  I'm more excited that there is a remake set to arrive in 2012 starring Russel Crowe and Hugh Jackman (yes, please) Les Miserables 2012.  Though I have to give props to Liam Neeson, Claire Danes and Geoffrey Rush for the 1998 version.
