Caraval by Stephanie Garber

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

2.0

the main character is insufferable. but the intrigue surrounding the story itself kept me going; i really wanted to see how it could end. i can't possibly read the next book kuz i spent the entirety of this one annoyed.

WARNING: there is an age-gap trope
one of the male characters is decades older than the female character he gets romantically involved with, like old enough to be her grandfather, but i guess it's fine kuz he LOOKS her age due to mAgIc
