mollygraceful 's review for:

The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux

2.0

---

i was quite intrigued while reading this as a fan of the 2004 movie. i think it overall held up and i enjoyed the additions that the book gives versus the movie. however i wish christine and roaul were more compelling in the book. it wasn’t strong enough of a romance (tragic or not) for me and i then found myself wishing that the Opera Ghost took more of a main role than he did
