Evaluating: 4 stars
I have heard this book name, The Phantom of the Opera, before but it is first time for me to read this story. It is interesting. I pity Erik and I understand his sadness. I also feel his sorrow. This book describes Erik’s pity well, especially in the last scene. I come to want to see the movie or musical.
