I wanted to like this book. It's well written, has some great imagery - a film version would be spectacular in the right hands - and an interesting premise, but that's all it has. The story is slow to non-existent. The narrative jumps back and forth in time which is somewhere between confusing and...
It wasn't as good as I expected for all it's "critical acclaim", but that being said, it was still an extremely good read. Fascinating story and so descriptive. I could really visulize what the author was saying. Almost like a work of art.
I did think this came close to earning the Goodreads criteria of "amazing" for five stars. I've seen this described as "magical realism" which I tend to have a very mixed reaction to. I hated it in works I read by Allende and Márquez, loved it with Rushdie and Kundera. The Night Circus is more fanta...
The Night Circus was an enchanting read. The plot was very mysterious but the characters were what drew me in. I adored all of them for different reasons and finding out what happens to them was so bittersweet. I enjoyed the world and the descriptions of the circus itself. Erin Morgenstern's writing...

I don't think I'm going to say too much about this one. It's been done again and again and pretty much everyone I know seems to love it. Me, well, I just never really connected with the characters. I got the closest with Bailey, but I felt like the author's language just kept me at a distance. ...
This might be a little bit of a difficult review for me to write.I've been wanting to read The Night Circus for a long time now, well over a year, but a series of circumstances prevented me from doing so. Mainly, my local library is not well stocked at all, and I was too lazy to buy it whenever I we...
