I loved this book so much. The characters, the plot, the character arc,, everything about it was 🤌🤌🤌. Normally Katie's books are a hit or a miss for me but I absolutely adored this, it's also my second Kendra book.

The themes of the book where also amazing, like the Circus and it's inner workings and the magic that keeps it all together. The lore behind it was so interesting, I would've loved some more info.

The MEN, OMG I am obsessed.

 â€śSave yourself or fall. If you can’t be strong enough to grasp your life, then you haven’t changed from the woman we met all those nights ago and you might be better in death’s embrace.”
I can't even begin to accurately express the amount of obsessed that I am with this book! Circus romance is one of my newest infatuations and I never want to leave the lights of Cirque Obscurum!

“Darkness encircles you, but remember that those who hide in the light can carry just as much evil as those in the shadows.”

I loved every low and relished every win Ember went through, reading about her traumatic past and then watching her become the person she was always meant to has to be one of my favorite parts of this story. add in the super-hot and unhinged Club, Diamond, heart, and Spade and this book will have you falling into its madness with open arms.

expect murder, gore, revenge and various levels of deranged spice. I already want to do a reread and go back through and annotate a physical copy of this book!

The darkness will always come when you call.

ka knight has always been an instant buy for me and she was one of my first RH authors! she has blown my mind, once again, with the help of the amazing kendra moreno!! 
this dazzling story begins with our queen ember living out her darkest nightmare. enter stage left our men, ♦️♠️♥️♣️. 
Our favorite circus royalty takes us through many perilous journeys and slay many a nightmare, in an attempt to reach their own HEA. 
Be warned though, many triggers and traps lay between where we begin our journey, and where our ultimate destination lies. 
Are you brave enough to enter the world of Cirque Obscurum? Take a hand, if you dare, and enjoy the ride on Freedom’s back, while Diamond sings you the sweetest rhymes. 
————————————————————
I was truly enthralled with this story! I could not put it down and it shot me straight out of a reading slump. i giggled at the dramatics, i was torn apart by the nightmares, and put back together again by the immense love shared with all who deserved it at the circus. Katie and Kendra did a spectacular job of transporting us to the circus and I cannot thank them and Courtney for allowing me to the opportunity to receive an ARC of Cirque Obscurum.
