Amanda (amandarichard421) | 94 comments I just finished The Night Circus. What a GREAT book!!!


message 102: by Carol (new)

Carol E. (mngiraffe) Hmm, I tried "Night Circus" and couldn't get into it. Too weird in the beginning, I thought. I don't go for that fantastical stuff. Do you think I should try again?

I would give it another shot. I tried to read it a few months ago and I couldn't get past the first few pages. I picked it up again last week and couldn't stop reading it. I guess I just had to be in the mood. :)

The Night Circus is one of my all time favorite books! I couldn't read anything for months afterward because nothing else could compare. But I dig on that fantastical stuff so I'm biased. ;-)

I do too so that's probably why I loved it so much. I LOVED the visual that was created. That's probably the artist in me though...I might have to start reading it again, ha!

Carol E. (mngiraffe) Recently finished The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and LOVED it. A really great story about a man who walks across England to see a friend who has cancer. One of my faves.

Amanda ~ I am in charge of choosing the October book for my local group and I'm considering selecting that one so I can read it again. I think it would be a good October book don't you??

Carol ~ It was good huh?? I'm very interested in that one!

Fiona ~ I loved The Hunger Games. What did you think?

Amanda (amandarichard421) | 94 comments I do think it would be a good October book!

Carol E. (mngiraffe) Maranda, yes, I loved TUPOHF but I can't guarantee you will, too. However, it is worth a try!

Jean (jeanmyles) | 24 comments Agreed about Night Circus. One of my favorites from last year. Lately, it is hard to find books that I can't wait to find time to read, but Night Circus was one of those.

Lori | 23 comments I just finished The Late Bloomer's Revolution. It was a cutesy biography. Nothing terribly exciting but nice to know that someone admits they don't know everything and feel like their life is upside down at times.

Just began Catching Fire a few days ago. Is its pace similar to Hunger Games?
