Sometimes, you pick up a book, bury your nose and you will lose yourself inside it. The Night Circus is one such book. This book is a fine piece of writing interlaced with magic. I got this book after reading it’s blurb.

After reading the blurb, I had different expectations and assumptions about this book. And when I started reading this one, I was lost in its intricacies. The magic in this book is not majestic like in epic fantasy books. The magic in this book is elegant and it’s like a fresh breath of air.

This book revolves around two characters who are competing against each other. But if you expect this competition like the dual in Harry Potter, then you are in for a surprise. The competition is supposed to happen at the circus and no one knows the rules or the winning criteria of it. The beauty of this book is its writing style.

The author rocked the book with many POVs. She has woven a love story with conflicting people. Also, the book is not in a linear timeline which can be a bit confusing. Apart from that, this is one sparkling prose with an unexpected ending.

Would I recommend this book?

Definitely to all fantasy lovers.
