I loved this! So creative and beautifully written. Well done!

I've just read this far in one sittingcourtesy of covid-19 lockdownand I bawlled

I want my heart back, I am accusing you or Erik and Daniel for stealing my heart, do you having anything to say to defend yourself (eyes narrowing). This maybe by far my favorite chapter. I am so glad that you actually created this tender side of Erik (not that he wasn't tender before, but you know, how he's got a soft spot for kids who are being badly neglected).
Now I am picturing Daniel as a deformed Gustave (the London production), I think I have watched Love Never Dies more than I should have (grimace).

It's about time someone talked some sense in Erik about the whole having children or not issue. Also every time you mention "Anna", my brain just pictures Anna O'Bryne, you know, the Christine in the Australian production of Love Never Dies (the one that got made into a movie), huh

Yesssss! Christine can finally see! But be careful Erik! Christine being temporarily blind made me suddenly realize, when she first came to Erik's the only things she's able to see are her nightmares, poor Christine.
I know you say you like reviews, but I was just wondering (I tend to overthink on a lot of things, just not as much as Erik does, but anyways) if you still appreciate reviews that's late. I don't want to you get annoyed with my bombarding your inbox or something like that.(Umm, you may find this absurd, but I am a very nervous person). Also once again I am impressed by how you could write such wonderful stuff.

awwwwwwww this is such a sweet chapter, god bless Anna, but I have sinking feeling that something terrible is going to happen

Intriguing from the start.

Love it when the first chapter captures me as I know I’m going to enjoy the story.

Brava! Really enjoyed this one!

That was one of the most amazing and beautiful stories I ever read! I especially loved the Daniel Trouville chapter! This story is definitely tied with another story as my top favorite POTO story as of now.

THIS HAS BEEN MY FAVORITE CHAPTER SO FAR! Brilliant work with Mr Charles! One thing I was bothered with was the fact that you had to spoon feed the reason why Mr. Charles was acting the way he was; in the middle of the scene no less! It brought an annoying break to the tension you were trying to convey. I can understand that you wish to portray mr. Charles as a distraught father but breaking the immersion of the scene was too much of a cost.

I am sorry to offer criticism without a suggestion on how to improve. :(

YOUR WRITING IS BRILLIANT! I've always believed that our upbringing plays a larger role in the formation of our personality, and i've always wished for a world where there was at least one person who is kind enough to treat child erik with compassion and love. Thank you so much for writing and posting this.

I am sad to have come to the end of this, but it was oh so wonderful. I have an epic book hangover now. Little Daniel was such a lovely addition as well. I dread to think of Erik's reactions when his other daughters start to meet men. I have a feeling he'd be even worse to any of their suitors than with Samuel. I could honestly have kept reading about these characters even more but that's the mark of such a great story. I loved the reunion between Erik and Anna in particular, and the first few chapters with little Erik were heart breaking. I wanted to scoop him up and hug him so much. Watching him finally realise that he can be loved was so lovely. I hope his evil mother suffered alone for many years for what she did! Bravo for such another wonderful story.

Aaarg I hate Suzette! hate her! She doesn't deserve to breath the same air as dear sweet Erik.

Aww I want to hug little Erik so much!

HE PROPOSED!
SHE SAID YES!
THEY ADMITTED THEIR FEELINGS FOR ONE ANOTHER!
