To be completely honest, I enjoyed the first half of the book more than the second. The second half dragssss in my opinion. It took a lot more effort to finish it than it did to start it. That being said, I’m still glad I read The Phantom of the Opera. It’s a classic piece of literature and a staple in the Universal Monsters mythos. Not sure I’d ever read it again, though.
