 The Night Circus by Erin MorgensternMy rating: 2 of 5 stars I don’t know. I really wanted to like The Night Circus—the premise is undeniably magical, and the world Morgenstern builds is rich with imagination. But for me, it just didn’t land. There was a lot of weird, overly elaborate description that felt more like a distraction than an enhancement. The prose is lush, yes, but sometimes it felt like style over substance. I found myself getting lost in the imagery and not in a good way. The ending? Not particularly worth it—or something. It just didn’t feel like the payoff matched the buildup. Maybe I missed something, or maybe it’s just not my cup of tea right now. If you love atmospheric reads and don’t mind a slower, more meandering plot, this might be for you. But personally, I was left feeling underwhelmed. View all my reviews |
