It wasn’t my favourite - it really wasn’t. I didn’t like the carnival setting or the use of “freaks” 

The ending chapters with the turban references made me really uncomfortable but so does someone using a cultural symbol as a disguise or costume. 

I’m disappointed- but that cliff hanger was pretty good - I’m hoping the next one is better
