The Night Circus

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, 387 pages


"The circus arrives without warning." That opening line sets the stage for a dreamy story about a pair of magicians who participate in an enigmatic competition, using a black-and-white circus that only appears at night as their venue. And somehow, as they create their magical additions to the circus, they manage to fall in love with one another. As interesting as the love story was, I've got to say that what I loved most about this book was the circus itself. I want to visit this circus! I want to be a reveur! Somebody knit me a red scarf...
