What Members Thought
I really wanted to fall in love with this book.
It has magic, a magical carnival of sorts no less, a private island, evil fathers, rogue sailors, I mean, what's not to love??

A lover of The Night Circus, I can definitely see why people says if you loved that you'll love this. This book was full of twists and turns, evocative of all kinds of magic. I was stolen several times by the new and delightful ways the author described the main characters feelings.
I loved the relationships between the sisters, and how that goes from the beginning through to the end. How they are there for themselves and for each other, and how you have to get to the end of the book to understa ...more
