It was like reading a slow flowing river. Does it make sense? What I mean is even that there was no action in the book it was a peaceful read that took me to another place that I felt comfortable and didn't want to leave, I could have stayed there longer if it was possible. I caught myself smiling while reading, I don't remember when was the last time I did that, it was that peaceful, I felt so ease like nowhere else. I loved the separate tents and the snacks thet had in the circus. They were all like they were taken from a dream. I would love to visit a circus like that. Well, if you know one like that let me know, I'll pack my bags right away.

The Night Circus is a masterpiece of beautifully creative concepts and superb writing. There is nothing I would change about it and I will be reading it again. The characters and plot will not be forgotten.

la primera mitad se hace más larga que un día sin pan y cuando te dan el pan ya ni siquiera está calentito

I may come back just to finish it but honestly it’s boring. If there isn’t going to be a strong plot I need to care about the characters, but I’m not invested in any of their lives or fates. My enjoyment of a book can’t be based on the descriptions of dresses and architecture, which I feel is the majority of this book.
