All Aces is definitely my favorite in the Circus Hearts series. I didn't want it to end.
I can always count on Ellie Marney to write characters who don't immediately make sense together but have amazing chemistry. Ren and Zep are no exception.
There are so many things I loved about All Aces: the multidimensional characters, the complex family dynamics, the way Ren describes Zep's artistry with cards, the actual plot line itself... We finally get some resolution to the mystery that began in Book 1, and the journey there is both smart & captivating.
I also really loved the way we were exposed to a little bit of Ren's family dynamics & culture. Some things (like language nuances or slang) are clarified for us as readers, and others aren't. I bring this up because I love that she can be Indonesian without explanation. That it's a part of her identity but it's not a plot point. It's just who she is.
Anyway. This was a really mesmerizing read and I want to see more of Ren and Zep in the future!

this was my favourite of the 3 for a couple of reasons. Firstly because I have gotten to know all the characters at Klatches and second and most importantly because of Ren. She was just so quirky and delightful. I loved her fascination and single minded determination to help Zep. It was kind of adorable.

Ellie Marney continues to be the only author who can get me properly invested in contemporary romance.

Great romance, great story, and great characters.
I will always associate this trilogy with my father's funeral. I read them all as I traveled there and back again, and in between moments of sadness, and great joy I shared with my siblings and mother.
