Caraval by Stephanie Garber
2.0

2,5/5. Hummm... Well it wasn't what I expected. Probably better then most YA I've read so far to be fair, we don't fall into too much clichés and the romance is of course there (those YA characters sure do fall in love easily!) but not too cheesy. Will I go on with the next one? No. Did I regret reading it? No. It was okay but too often those book have very good synopsis and look great but the execution often fail. The plot is not captivating at all, the characters just not unique or original enough and the universe is intriguing but not develop to it's full potential. I was expecting more fantasy, more action and hoping for more complex characters. Not really for me, but YA reader would probably, I think..., enjoy t!
