There are so many reasons to love The Night Circus. First, the exquisite and enchanting storytelling style dragged me into every scene, every piece of dialogue, every action. I was lost in the magic and mystery of Morgenstern's masterpiece from page one. Each character was strong, and stood on his or her own. Even supporting characters had intriguing and spellbinding histories and plotlines. The book kept me guessing, and I appreciate that I was given just enough information to get me on the right track without spoiling the whole experience. I wasn't bored for a single paragraph. The story pulled at my heartstrings, and had me truly sad to see the end - although I must say I adore Morgenstern's open ending. I love that we are left to wonder about the future of the characters and Le Cirque des Rêves.

"You think, as you walk away from Le Cirque des Rêves and into the creeping dawn, that you felt more awake within the confines of the circus. You are no longer quite certain which side of the fence is the dream."
