4.5 stars! I would love to give this 5 stars. But the beginning and middle lost me a little bit in parts. Although, I absolutely loved the end! It would be a dream to be able to visit Le Cirque des Rêves. Some of the tents sound absolutely mesmerizing.
I think my main issue with this book is I was expecting the writing to be a bit more lyrical. I was really hoping this book would be Caraval meets The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. Which in the end is actually kind of what we got. Just maybe not in the way I was hoping for? Regardless, I did really enjoy The Night Circus by the end.
