The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
5.0

I honestly wish someone would rewrite the summary for this book. It’s not what you would assume when you hear “fierce competition” or “duel” and I feel like that creates the entirely wrong set of expectations.

Words I would use to describe this book: quiet, magical, wonder, soft around the edges, atmospheric. Don’t come to this book looking for action and loud magic, I guarantee you will be disappointed.
