The Night Circus is one of my absolute favorite books, so I’ve held off on reading this for the love of anticipation. Unfortunately the story-within-a-story and slowwwww moving plot didn’t quite match up to my hopes. The vibes were amazing, so vividly written and beautiful. But ultimately I got lost in the sauce too often, things were wrapped up by the end but I just didn’t love it as much. Wish the plot line was more coherent.
