If you've seen the Disney movie prepare yourself for a tragic ending. There is no happy ending for this Hunchback, which was a little bit of a shock. If you're interested in classics, then this is definitely worth the read. There are some overdone descriptions, but the overall story is great and Hugo is able to pull the story together at the end so that all of the seemingly random characters make sense and you get this a ha! moment that makes the book worth reading.
