  The characters in Dune don’t journey as much as are placed on a board. That’s ok! In fact, it’s excellent writing. I can appreciate it. But I don’t necessarily enjoy it.

• Les Miserables: Volumes 3 through 5

  

  While it may not be my favorite book I have ever read, it is probably the best and greatest book I have ever read. It is the culmination of a man’s views on the world told in a story that will move any heart. It is worth every second of the experience.

• Les Misérables (The Wretched): Volume One

  

  It is your soul that I buy from you; I withdraw it from black thoughts and the spirit of perdition, and I give it to God.
