This book took me through LOTS of twists and turns. It made me feel almost as if I were solving a murder. Drawing up theories in my head on who everyone may truly be, feeling sceptical about certain characters that give of suspicious behaviour. It was very entertaining, heavy with detailed writing, you could almost get lost in the descriptions. What probably bothered me the most about Caraval was the unrealistic naivety of certain characters. That may also just be a deliberate element that was put into the story to add more aspects of betrayal and confusion. A very very good read, hopefully the rest of the series is just the same, because I am eager to know what happens next.
