The first half of this book dragged on for me so bad. I could not stay interested no matter how hard I tried. But I loved once upon a broken heart, so I pushed through so I could read this series and understand the background behind that storyline as well. I’m glad I did, because the second half of this book was so much better. I loved the magic of Caraval and how so unique it’s setting and story telling was. I particularly loved Scarlett’s dress as it changed with her moods and that was really cool. I still wished for more in this book, but I can’t say if what. I guess I just didn’t feel as connected with the characters as I would have liked. Perhaps that will be different in the second book. All in all, it was a very interesting and unique story.

This was actually a fun plot and I liked most of the characters I just wasn't a fan of the author's style of writing. I didn't predict the end but I kind of expected it to end the way it did. It's definitely a series I could enjoy.
