Specific things I liked: the whole describing feelings with colors and the beautiful dresses.
I didn’t like much else…
Was curious towards the end but I predicted it and still thought it was sort of dumb in the execution.
Also Scarlett is dumb and annoying for the whole book and the romance makes no sense…
And we had like 0 good times. I thought it was supposed to be fun but it had just really bad vibes throughout💀

A very conflicted read…. I loved the premise of the book but ultimately it fell a little flat it also felt like a very slow read it really only started to pick up 60% through. The only thing that really saved the book for me was Julian I couldn’t stand Scarlett on her own but she got slightly more bearable the more her and Julian’s relationship developed. Which omg I know they warned you at the beginning of the book to not trust people everything is fake but their relationship was real to me!! I’m willing to give the second book a chance but I’m not sure if I’m gonna finish the trilogy.
“Welcome, welcome to Caraval! The grandest show on land or by sea. Inside you’ll experience more wonders than most people see in a lifetime. You can sip magic from a cup and buy dreams in a bottle. But before you fully enter into our world, you must remember it’s all a game.
She remembered thinking falling for him would be like falling in love with darkness, but now she imagined he was more like a starry night: the constellations were always there, constant, magnificent guides against the ever-present black.
Scarlett didn’t know how many times she repeated his name. She said it like a prayer. A plea. A whisper. A good-bye.
