Runaways, Vol. 1: Find Your Way Home by Rainbow Rowell
Did not finish book. Stopped at 24%.

Thought this was a new start, but clearly a lot of stuff has happened in the past

Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux

fast-paced

2.0

Didn’t realize until I finished that this was a middle grade adaptation. Still, the novel moved so fast that there were no stakes, no tension, no real motivation explanation, or even personality. Even the life-threatening moneys were only given a panel or two. Does not do the story justice. Only reason it’s not a one star is because I love Phantom of the Opera
