25 - The Night Circus, by Erin Morgenstern
WHY I PICKED IT: Recommended by my friend Joanne
ELAPSED TIME: 1 week
RATING: Very Good
Celia's Dad commits her to a competition when she's still a child. Marco is plucked out of an orphanage to compete against her. Taught as magicians and illusionists, they are committed to a competition from which they cannot quit. The arena is a black and white circus, that opens at dusk and goes all night... almost every night for years.
This book was fantastic. It sucked me into the story and captivated me; the only critique being that I don't really like books that go for 500+ pages. I don't want to ruin the book, so that's all I'll write. Highly recommend it.
This blog is a simple review of every book that I read... For all books I’ll tell you why I picked it, how long it took me to read it, and give it a rating (burn it, not good, meh, good, very good, and required reading). I ask (encourage?) all readers of my blog to post their thoughts of any of the books in my comments :). Thanks!
