Words cannot describe the excruciating pain I felt as I plowed through this book. It was my stubborn need to finish the book that kept me holding on till the end. The book can be described as a verbal vomit where more time is spent describing the magical circus with little to no attention being paid to the protagonist or any of the characters. The story is bland, and the character development is lacking but the setting is exquisitely described to the last grain of sand. The circus and the description of all the attractions within the circus take up about 80% of the book with a half baked plot thrown in for the sake of it.
If you are someone who enjoy descriptions of a picturesque scene above ALL else, even the plot, then this book might be for you.
