I’ve had this book on my TBR since it was released. Now having read it I think I judged the book by its shiny cover. A twist on Les Misérables story sounded interesting, though I will admit to having not read the book and have only seen the West End production (fantastic) and the movie, I was intrigued. My intrigue and investment did not last long as honestly I didn’t empathise with the characters. I can see potential, it is well written, just wasn’t for me and I’m not invested enough to carry on with the series.
