i guess I was just expecting something else. it's still an essential russian classic that I think everyone should read, but I just found it to be overall depressing. plus, anna only appeared every now and then and she was who I wanted to read about!  make sure to follow on here and ig (thelovelythings505) 🤎  #annakarenina #leotolstoy #Tolstoy #annak #annotatewithme #readwithme #readingvlog #penguinclothboundclassics #russianliterature #russianlit  #annotatedbooks #annotations #annotatedbook  #penguinclassics  #BookTok #booktoker    #currentread #bookrecommendations  #classicliterature #classiclittok #classiclittiktok #classicbooks #shelfie #classicnovels
The beginning of Les Misérables starts off telling us about a man named Monseigneur Myriel, who is the Bishop of Digne. As to be expected, he is a godly man who takes his role as Bishop very seriously.  But even though the Bishop is a godly man who lives in the spirit, he is still a man who holds prejudices and biases like everyone else.  We see this come to play when he has a conversation with a man who everyone ostracizes due to his involvement in The French Revolution.  In the brief moments we see  between the Bishop and the man who is referred to as simply “G” , we see that his morals and beliefs for participating in the overthrow of the monarchy came from the fact that the poor were being mistreated. He asks a brutal but very important question that even the Bishop couldn’t overlook which is: how can the mistreatment of the rich and powerful be more important than the mistreatment of the poor? Are they not both human deserving of rights and respect?  I found their interaction to be extremely powerful, and it shows how much we judge people without really knowing more about them. This man had good justification for his involvement, yet everyone assumed that he was a bad man simply because he went against the norm.  I’m very intrigued with this story already. I’m loving the dialogue and how Hugo is already making me think about things more in-depth!  Stay tuned for more of my thoughts as I read Les Misérables by Victor Hugo by the end of the month! 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷 - - - - -  #annotatedbooks #annotations #annotated #annotating  #currentread #currentlyreading #darkacademia #darkacademiaaesthetic #penguinclassics  #books #bookish #lesmiserables #victorhugo #classicbooks #classiclit  #classicliterature #classicnovels #classicbooks #aesthetic #aestheticedits #bookishaesthetic

Bookish vibes: last, now, next edition. 📖✨️ ✨️Last: Cannery Row by John Steinbeck  🕯Now: Confessions by Saint Augustine  ✨️Next: Travels with Charley In Search of America by John Steinbeck  ✨️Last: I finished Cannery Row yesterday morning and loved how it ended. The world of Cannery Row felt so alive. It reminded me of a little town you stop through on a road trip. Quaint, small, yet full of life and humanity. I give it a solid 4⭐️ ✨️Now:  I'm doing a full theological dive into Confessions by Saint Augustine.  This will be a slow read for me because I want to take a lot away from this. ❤️ ✨️Next: Since I'm in my Steinbeck era, I figure I might as well read another short novel by him! Travels with Charley has been on my mind the most, and I actually intended on reading it before Cannery Row, but I couldn't find where I put it lol. I'll probably start that one today or tomorrow!  What's your last, now, next for books?  - - - - - #johnsteinbeck #steinbeck #Canneryrow #saintaugustine #staugustine #confessions #theology #theologytiktok  #currentread #currentlyreading #darkacademia #darkacademiaaesthetic #penguinclassics  #annotating #annotate   #annotations #travelswithcharley #annotatedbooks #books #bookishlove #classicbooks #classiclit  #classicliterature #classicnovels #classicbooks #studyinspo #bookrecommendations #lastnownext

Jean Valjean has finally been introduced, and his story is absolutely heartbreaking.  The political system at the time was extremely intense, and the punishments given to people were unfair, to say the least. Poverty, while not a crime in and of itself, was treated as such when it came to the law. Being poor was almost the equivalent to a death sentence, and those who were poor had to do everything they could to survive.  Hugo describes Jean Valjean's family of seven children and his sister with whom he lived with as being “a sad little group, engulfed in poverty and always on the verge of destitution.” So, Jean Valjean resorted to stealing in order to provide for his family, and because of that, he ended up in prison for 5 years. Over time, the punishment grew, and long story short, he spent 19 years in prison.  Victor Hugo makes a case for Valjean by mentioning that while he was wrong for his crime, it was ultimately the political system that caused Valjean to resort to those measures to survive. A man who was willing to work yet was unable to find employment shouldn’t have been in that predicament in the first place.  Valjean’s life was full of sadness and unfairness. I don’t blame the guy for hating everything and giving up hope in the world. I’m curious to see how his story plays out and what happens with him. (Mind you, I’ve never read the story, nor have I seen the musical in its entirety. So I have ZERO clue as to what will happen! ) Stay tuned for more of my thoughts as I read Les Miserables by Victor Hugo by the end of the month!  make sure to follow on here and ig (thelovelythings505) for more classic literature and les Misérables content! 🤎  #lesmiserables #lesmis #victorhugo #hugo  #annotatewithme #readwithme #readingvlog   #annotatedbooks #annotations #annotatedbook  #penguinclassics  #BookTok #booktoker    #currentread #bookrecommendations  #classicliterature #classiclittok #classiclittiktok #classicbooks #jeanvaljean  #classicnovels

I officially love The Bishop 🥹😭 Jean Valjean mistreated his kindness, and instead of turning him in and getting him into more trouble, he turned the other cheek.  At this point in the story, Jean Valjean just doesn't seem to learn from his mistakes, and it keeps getting him into trouble. I'm so disappointed in him!! 🥺 I hope he'll learn from this, and hopefully, the Bishop's kindness will encourage him to change his ways!
