A Spectacle of Souls by Jessica Julien
5.0
Magic, circus and a beautiful story of friendship and love. I am not sure what else do you need for a perfect fantasy book!
Caitlyn has been dreaming of the things that she doesn't know and when a guy walks one day in the cafe she works in, an inner voice starts talking to her. When Caitlyn finds out that the guy handed a template for the circus, she with her best friend Vanessa decides to go to the circus to have some fun. But, the circus is no ordinary one, Caitlyn gets visions of horrible things, and, there is someone in the show who has eyes on her.
The ringmaster has the perfect plan to capture the girl and to fight him, she will have to leave everything behind. With the people at the circus and the handsome magician Daniel, she will do her best to fight but the Ringmaster can succumb the powers and control the mind of others. Will Caitlyn be able to fight the dark master?
A beautiful tale, with minimum gore and absolutely can be enjoyed by anyone of any age! The story is multi-POV and the description is really well. At some points during the book, it got a bit boring to continue, but, that was not something that interfered with my reading. The characters are beautiful yet they seem so perfect which makes them a bit unreal, again, it is a fantasy and anything can happen but characters with flaws can be connected very easily.
The world flow is easy and the story has a good grip, the sub-characters need a bit more detailing so one can know more about them. The conversations and the description of the looks of the sub-characters are minimal but yet enough to know that they are there!
Overall, A nice read, and I would love to read the other books in the series!
