  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

4.25

Liked:
  • How the plot was engaging throughout the whole book
  • The world and the dynamic/atmosphere of Caraval
  • How the main characters were sisters

Didn't like as much:
  • How the romance developed so quickly
  • The stubbornness of both Scarlett and Tella (only at some points in the story)
  • How Tella was absent for much of the story but was still central to Scarlett's motivations—I wish I got to know a little more about Tella at the beginning
  • The ending was a bit underwhelming to me

Overall, I liked Caraval and I look forward to continuing with the series.

Really great read! I felt like the first 100 or so pages were kind of slow moving but after that it was so exciting! Couldn’t put it down!
