I know this is the type of thing that can easily turn into a flame war, but which version do you prefer, the book or the musical?
Personally I like the musical, I find that it's awesome and made of win. Not to mention that the poster just plain kicks ass.

I should note that I took French class to read the book in its original langue.
So, monsouirs and madames, what do you say?
