What I liked most about Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern was that it was unique in terms of its plot. It was filled with magic and mystically elaborate settings. Every event was a surprise, I could never predict what was about to happen. Something I found annoying yet interesting was how the book was organized. Some books may change point of view from one character to another, but this book changed in point of view, setting, and time. The different points of view, in the end, all tied together and it made sense why they were even mentioned. Also, the author would occasionally pop in a chapter describing a circus-goers experience.
Since most people probably didn't read Night Circus for their book of choice, this book was about two magicians bound together by a game of skills, with the entirely black and white circus as the stage. The two players were trained from childhood so that they may be prepared for the competition were only one can be left standing. While reading, I always looked forward to another description of the circus because I felt like I was actually there and it also made me really want to go to a circus. The author is very skilled at using sensory in her writing because she uses all the senses, making it easy to imagine actually being there. I highly recommend this book for those of you who enjoy enchanting fantasy books with magical occurrences and a little bit of romance.
