A steamy YA romance inspired by Gaston Leroux's classic The Phantom of the OperaSeventeen-year-old Stephanie Armand doesn't believe in ghosts or spirits. Despite her six-year-old sister insisting a masked figure is hiding in her closet, and the rumors at school, Stephanie isn't convinced her father's latest renovation project--a crumbling Victorian mansion--houses the soul of a monster. So when the very charming (and paranormal-obsessed) Lucas Cheney takes an interest in both Stephanie and her notorious home, Moldavia, the supernatural and romantic activity escalates to an all-time high. But then there's Erik-- the dashing British boy, seemingly from another era, who's taken up residence in Stephanie's nightly dreams. A boy who may have something to do with the man in the mask, and the strange occurrences taking place at Moldavia.
This is one of my most anticipated books of 2021. I am a fan of her other books as well as anything to do with Phantom of the Opera. So when I heard she was doing Phantom Heart, I was ecstatic and didn't hesitate to pre-order.This #POTO #retelling engulfed me right away. This book is for fans of Phantom of the Opera (obviously) stage and book, Supernatural, #paranormalinvestigation shows/books, and YA paranormal fiction--just to name a few. On Goodreads, they lump it in with the likes of Twilight...I beg to differ. Nothing against that series (I read and enjoyed it). But Phantom Heart kept me asking questions about the characters, motivations, and backstories. I was visualizing everything like a movie, which goes to show Creagh’s writing provides much to behold. If you’ve read her other works (the Nevermore trilogy and Nickolas Claus: Ghosts of Christmas Past), you know the attention to detail to which Creagh pays.There were times I was reading and found myself mimicking mannerisms the characters were doing, holding my breath, definitely laughing, and most certainly crying. Creagh knows how to tug at the range of emotions in anything I’ve read by her, Phantom Heart definitely included.And though it’s inspired by #POTO, there are definite artistic liberties and deviations that make this a #thrilling and #original retelling.
