Description To Books RoseBlood
In this modern day spin on Leroux’s gothic tale of unrequited love turned to madness, seventeen-year-old Rune Germain has a mysterious affliction linked to her operatic talent, and a horrifying mistake she’s trying to hide. Hoping creative direction will help her, Rune’s mother sends her to a French arts conservatory for her senior year, located in an opera house rumored to have ties to The Phantom of the Opera.At RoseBlood, Rune secretly befriends the masked Thorn—an elusive violinist who not only guides her musical transformation through dreams that seem more real than reality itself, but somehow knows who she is behind her own masks. As the two discover an otherworldly connection and a soul-deep romance blossoms, Thorn’s dark agenda comes to light and he’s forced to make a deadly choice: lead Rune to her destruction, or face the wrath of the phantom who has haunted the opera house for a century, and is the only father he’s ever known.

I absolutely loved this book. Ive always been a fan of Phantom {Ive seen it several times in San Diego, LA, and Chicago} and never mind the fact that it was Anitas words, I didnt even know I wanted a Phantom retellling until I learned about RoseBlood.Rune is an interesting character. Shes got this amazing talent that has made her withdraw a bit. Shes still grieving for her father and as she learns things about herself, she is constantly second guessing things that happened in the past. At times,Such a beautiful, haunting, dark, but romantic story! I love what A.G. fid with the Phantom of The Opera story! It's not a retelling but taken from Phantom and built upon so that it's in the modern world with new characters and it's absolutely spellbinding and gorgeous! You will all fall for Rune and Thorn oh and Diable I adored that damned cat lol
Oh, no big deal, I've only been clamoring for a Phantom of the Opera retelling since forever and now A.G. Howard is writing one!
Rune Germaine has always had a beautiful voice but feels a pull towards singing that she doesn't quite understand and can even feel sick or drained at the end of a performance. Now Rune's mother has talked Rune's aunt into pulling a few strings to get Rune bumped to the front of the line to attend Roseblood, a boarding school outside of Paris at an opera house that's been turned into a music conservatory.Rune knows the history of the opera house and shortly after arriving she sees a mystery boy
My January Owlcrate Box! Don't look if you haven't gotten yours yet. Although, my picture wasn't all that great this time! At home, I have a poster on my wall of a rose that's bleeding. It's petals are white, and red liquid oozes from its heart, thick and glistening warm. Only, if you look very close, you can see the droplets are coming from above, where a little girl's wrist--camouflaged by a cluster of leaves--has been pricked by it's thorns as she reached inside to catch a monarch.

So this was CREEPY YET AWESOME. Which is just how I like my books, thank you, with a sidedish of psychotic Phantoms and perhaps some cake. #lovely And I'll have you know I was absolutely obsessed with the Phantom of the Opera in my wayward youth. (Erm, like, 5 years ago.) I watched the movie (with Gerard Butler) about 1000 MILLION TIMES and I had all the music to learn on the piano and I knew all the songs and I WAS BASICALLY GOING TO BE THE PHANTOM WHEN I GREW UP. Minus, possibly, the psycho
