    this is very different from the broadway show and movie.
    still, it's interesting to see the original story.

    I think it's absolutly amazing how Leroux wrote the book...taking the letters and the info he had and turning it into an amazing story...it's really believeable, even if you aren't sure whether to believe it or not...I found that in the end, I realized that Erik wasn't as bad as he was in the beginning, and I cried at the end.

    I loved this book. I had watched the 2004 version of the movie, and I was pleasantly surprised after reading the book to find that the book had so much more detail and explained a lot of things. I was always skeptical about Christine and Raoul's love, but it is explained in the book, and I do appreciate Raoul a bit more now. However, I still find the ending to be probably one of the saddest things to think about. That is why I have never liked Raoul over Erik. Imagine being ridiculed all your life and then when you think you have finally found someone to love they are ripped away from you...

    I find Raoul's character to be somewhat presumptuous. Annoyingly so. However I think Leroux presents an interesting psychological profile, particularly Erik. Overall a pretty good book.
