"The moon was shining brightly and I saw clearly that no one had touched the window. Not only were the bars that protect it intact, but the blinds inside of them were drawn, as I had myself drawn them early in the evening, as I did every day, though Mademoiselle, knowing that I was tired from the he...
Grosso modo : meh. Mlle Mathilde Stangerson is attacked at night in her yellow bedroom and the perpetrator magically escapes without anyone seeing him. Her room is literally locked and there is no other means of access. Enter Joseph Rouletabille, the 18-year-old reporter who aims to beat the polic...
Please don't read this review if you have not read "The Mystery of the Yellow Room". I got this via the Kindle, but it is not showing up on Goodreads except as a paperback book. I should have maybe passed this by once the introduction even said that this book was not as great as The Mystery of the Y...
Even though this was not a long book, I took my time with it. I love locked room mystery novels and I had notes and highlights all through the version of the Kindle book that I own. Written in 1908, "The Mystery of the Yellow Room" is one of the first locked room mystery crime novels. The same man w...
“No more talk of darkness. Forget these wide-eyed fears. I'm here, nothing can harm you. My words will warm you and calm you...” OK OK, I won't go there, no Andrew Lloyd Wibbly in this review. The Phantom of the Opera seems to have joined the rank of books that few people bother to read because too ...

Well, that was melodramatic. Because I quit a book last week, I forced myself to finish this one. I can finish anything on audio, thought I. I am not a quitter, thought I. But after struggling to focus on this and backtracking 2 hours because I realized I had been daydreaming the entire time, I ha...
I am sure you have heard of that book. The musical is legendary, the character has been used for so many stories, everyone has heard about "The Phantom Of The Opera" - even if it's because of the Animaniacs or the Duck Tales or Sherlock Holmes. But have you read the book? Yes? Fine! Did you like ...
"Your soul is a beautiful thing, child" replied the grave man's voice, "and I thank you. No emperor ever received so fair a gift. The angels wept tonight." I have always liked the Phantom of the Opera but this the first time I have actually read the book. This is such a classic, beautiful story. Er...
