Loved the story because of the musical but the book wasn’t as good, but a very sentimental story for me from childhood

Well, well, well. Another reread. And reading it again just made it even more clear as to why this is one of my all time favourite books ever. I just love books with awful characters but you sympathise with them and you're rooting for them too, no matter how ugly they are acting. 

The dark setting, the humour, the way their characters descend into madness all in the name of love? [Chef's kiss] I adore you Gaston Leroux (even when I'm speed reading through Moncharmin and Richard's silly squabbles. That scene is just better on stage)!!
