Gabe Stewart's Blog Takeover
Book Review: Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
Hey peeps! I hope your having a rockin' day!
Huge kudos to the super dope Laura from LozzasBookCorner for having me here.
Lately I’ve started reading these classic books and reviewing them.
Anyway, here's my review on
this book by Vic Hugo.
Let me say that these people were MAJOR overreactors. So there's this girl, Jean Valjean, who
steals this loaf of bread. They put her in prison. I mean, holy cow. Talk about extremes. Jean even
has to change her identity. Oh, okay, wait. My best friend, K, just told me that he wasn’t a
woman, but a dude.
So there's this guy, Jean Valjean. I guess maybe he gets a sex change? Anyway, he has to change
his name and move to another town where he becomes the mayor. Then he helps this dying
prostitute and ends up raising her child, Cosette. Then he’s captured and escapes. There’s a lot of
capturing and escaping–seriously, this dude is like Houdini.
Meanwhile, people are still hunting him over this damn loaf of bread. I mean, geez! Who the heck
cares about a few carbs. I would have just baked a new loaf and turned it in. K, do you know how
to make bread? Okay, K says I’m getting off topic.
I'll tell you one thing. The book is really well titled because everybody in the book is freaking
miserable. I mean, why even get out of bed? Most of them don't even have beds or bathe. And
then Jean dies at the end. Can somebody give me a hug?
Gabe's Take: If you don't mind reading about some unpleasant people who've had a sex change,
this is the book for you.

Gabe Stewart has everything he ever wanted. Mortal Earth is safe. He’s a super-hero Protector whose best friend is within telepathic shouting distance. And then there’s his soul-mate, Singer. He knew right away she was the one he’d been waiting for.
But Gabe’s world shatters when Singer professes she doesn’t love him. On top of that, his mother admits she’s been messing with his memory making him doubt everything he’s ever known. And just when it seems things can’t get any worse, his best friend in the whole freaking world, Kellen St. James, wants Gabe to stop being his Protector. Being a Protector is who Gabe is. What will happen if he’s not standing between the prince and danger?
