There is nothing more magical than an Erin Morgenstern book.
I should've read this a long time ago, but whew I'm glad I have now. I don't even know if I fully understood everything that happened in the book, but just like The Starless Sea it was a delightful journey to go on, full of tangible characters that you fall in love with.
The way that Morgenstern writes is truly something else. It's magical, absorbing, frilly and grounded. The descriptions of things suck you right in to the story and you ...more

In the beginning I was getting frustrated because I didn't understand the rules of the game but mostly because of the vagueness of the explanation A. H. and Hector gave. I just wanted to understand the nature of the game but then, I got more invested with the characters and the circus and started to enjoy the book. Other helpful thing was the discovery of a Spotify playlist that went really well with this book.

There are some books you read that deserve more than five stars.

I really enjoyed this book. From the minute I picked it up, I couldn't put it down. This book was filled with mystery, fantasy and a dash of romance. My friend read it during a storm associated black out, and I have to admit, all the other obvious implications of a storm/blackout situation aside, I was kind of jealous - what a perfect book to read during a black out.... it would have just added to the whole mystique of the book. I found the ending only slightly disappointing, which may have just

This was a book I enjoyed reading. But it tried too hard to make a mystery that was telegraphed far too early and there wasn't enough character development to make the love story plausible. It was also very difficult to follow. Still, I did enjoy it - but it wasn't as great as I wanted it to be.

This book was wonderful. A really lovely love story with plenty of other elements to keep it really interesting.
