ChaoticMissAdventures
Phantom of the Opera | Gaston Leroux

A gothic thriller on this hint of summer day? Yes please. I really liked the pacing of this, you keep moving quickly forward. The mystery is interesting, but I felt the characters were far away I didn't feel connected or informed about any of them. Overall it is a pick, a quick read for a classic (1910) it kept my attention but I cannot imagine ever reading it again.

The "Opera Ghost" keeps signing his letters OG which has a whole new meaning 100+ years (and American audience) on
Every time I see it I giggle. Ghost is causing havoc like a real O. G. ?

I have no idea why but I started this book (my first time reading it) and I had a visceral memory of my mom watching this Beauty and the Beast show when I was a kid. The show ran from 1987-90 and I remember it being unhinged. Does anyone else remember this show??

ChaoticMissAdventures Plot: District attorney Catherine Chandler, after being attacked and left for dead, is rescued by a half-man/half-beast named Vincent who lives in secret caves and tunnels beneath New York City. When Catherine returns to the surface to resume her life, she and Vincent are not only in love, but share a powerful psychic bond that enables Vincent to sense whenever Catherine is in danger. 4d
TheLudicReader My bff was in LOVE with this show, which is weird because it's not the sort of show I ever would have thought she'd like. 4d
mcctrish I loved this show 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣 4d

willaful I watched some of it maybe 10 years ago. So eighties! I did enjoy the romanticism. 4d
dabbe I loved this show, too, but the whole living-in-the-sewers thing kinda creeped me out! 😱 4d
TheKidUpstairs Totally remember this show! I watched it with my mom. 4d
marleed I was obsessed with this show to the point that I actually grieved Linda Hamilton leaving it. I recall she was interviewed a year or so after her departure and asked about those grieving fans. Her reply was essentially get over it, it‘s a tv show. She was obviously speaking to me🤣😢🤣 4d
ChaoticMissAdventures @TheLudicReader @mcctrish @willaful @TheKidUpstairs I am so glad I wasn't having a fever dream and that other people remember this too! 4d
ChaoticMissAdventures @marleed that is so harsh! But sort of fair 😂 4d
mcctrish @marleed it did kind of fall apart just as it got good 4d
ChaoticMissAdventures @dabbe I think this is what reminded me of the show, reading about the phantom living underground! But under a Paris opera house sounds way more chic than in NYC sewers.... 4d
dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures 🎯🩵🎯!!! 4d

Yay! We have SUN! I am having coffee on my porch while I wait for the Village‘s Memorial Day Parade to go by. Surrounded by a canopy of bird song: American Goldfinch, Mocking bird, House Wren, Gray Catbird, Northern Cardinal,Red -winged Blackbird, Robin, Mourning Dove, Eastern Towee to name of few (Merlin Bird ID). Other than the birds, it‘s quiet. #porchlife #serieslove2025

I was wondering whether to carry on with this series, because one of the main character‘s behaviour was so appalling that it was grating on me. But this, the fifth in the series, turned it to a bit of a whodunnit and now I want to carry on and read the rest of the series!
