Delmy's needing to read more books (100) 2016
How adorable! I used to love to snuggle with my stuffed animals when I was a kid, so this is like the ultimate version of that.Good luck with your challenge!
Congrats on reading your first book on January 1, but sorry it was such a bummer! Here's to better rated books in the near future!

I loved the beginning- thought the prose and world-building were 5 star. Then, to me, it fell apart in the middle and the end seemed contrived, ill-fitting, and tacked on.
The author wrote this during NaNoWriMo and I think that she expanded it later into a novel. It probably would have been better as a novella. As it is, I thought you could see the cracks where she tacked stuff on to add length to the book. A shame. When I began it, I thought it was a book I was going to fall in love with. Nothing worse than a book that disappoints with a bad ending.
Bella, I completely agree. I loved the magic aspect, the fantastic circus but then somewhere along the line I was like where is this going? I couldn't agree more.
Hmmm I have owned Night Circus for ages but I never seem to find the time to read it, or find a book I want to read more! Thank you for your opinions! What are some of your favorite books?
