The Night Circus

Actual rating: 4.5

Quick thoughts: I can't think of a book I've read over the past year that was anywhere near as beautiful as The Night Circus. I can't argue with anyone who refers to this book as enchanting (even if at this point it sounds cliché) because really, it is enthralling, captivating, spellbinding, delightful and every other synonym you can think of. From the very first chapter, I was taken in. The fact that Jim Dale narrated the audiobook pretty much sealed the deal for me. After all, who wouldn't be intrigued by the following sign at the entrance of a circus?
