Legendary was *insert gif* legen - wait for it - dary! 

This book was straight chaos in the best way! I had an absolute blast reading it, and discussing it with my fellow buddy readers.

I had a blast reading Tella’s POV, learning more about the world, and experiencing Caraval again. The world building felt a little underdeveloped in book one, so I was glad to see more in this book.

Can’t wait to finish the series! 4 stars.

Not as good as the first book but better than expected. I thought reading from Donatella’s perspective wouldn’t be enjoyable but I grew to like her more than I thought I would. My biggest issue with this is actually the gaping plot holes it creates in the first, which was already teetering on the edge of being nonsensical. If you can pretend that the continuity issues don’t exist this might be a 4 or 5 star read for you, but, alas, you would be a bigger person than me.

i really disliked the fact that this book’s setting wasn’t the same as the previous one, i really wish it had been more “magical” like i expected it would. the new element of the Fates and the new characters were great tho, it would’ve been better if the book focused more on that rather than the horrible romance between Tella and Dante, i hope he fucking dies or something.

I typically love second books in trilogies, and this book is no exception. I love the mystery surrounding Caraval Master Legend's true identity, and the lengths that Tella will go to in order to retrieve it. Garber once again sucks you into the world of Caraval, where you are forced to question everything as you try to remember it's only a game. 

In addition to trying to unmask Legend, Tella is forced to confront some of the trauma that comes with her and Scarlett's mother leaving them when they were little. Along the way, she uncovers more truth than she bargained for, and has to decide how to move forward with this new information. 

Overall, I love the way that Garber expands the world of Caraval and digs deeper into many of the characters' backstories. Legendary is full of twists and turns and surprises, which make for quite the page turner. I recommend this book without reservation.
