Title: Phantom of the operaWhat the book is about: Withe his secret love, the phantom with the young Christine her heart belongs to a childhood friend and patron of the opera Raoul . The Phantom hides both his feelings and his face behind a stylized mask. Christine’s ambitions are constantly thwarted by the diva of the opera, La Carlotta, a brass and over the top signer whose talent is only exceeded by her massive ego. When the diva finds offense at some minor point she walks out right before a performance, the producers have no choice but to turn to the beautiful young chorus singer, Christine. Much to the chagrin of Carlotta the perform Christine gives is met by joyous critical acclaim.What I felt: IN life theres highs and lows. Christine felt the highs with Raoul and the low with Carlotta.
[[She proved her point]]
