Worth the read?

Still trying to get through Les Miserables.  I have read at least two other books since I started this.   Way more french history then I ever wanted to know.  Not a bad story but I wonder if its worth it.   This is a lot of work.  I have to read the book with my phone at hand so I can look up everything.  Any fans?  I have a lot of other books piling up with I trod slowly through this one.

    I haven't read it, but Madison loves it. She especially loved the 5-or-so chapters about France's sewage system...haha...I believe it was written at the time when writers were paid by the word, like Charles Dickens.
