Another Les Mis fan

I first saw the music Les Miserables when I went to stay a month at one of my best friend's house in another state (i met her online and ministered with her there). I fell in love with the music most of all, but after I came back home about a year later, I purchased the video off ebay. I have now gotten so hooked on this musical through even the story in it, that I plan to get the book and read it to find out more of the details of who these characters actually were. I cannot wait. Funny thing is, my new best friend cannot stand musicals! lol
