This is my second time reading this as I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of the audiobook from Macmillan audio (thank you so much to them!) Honestly I loved it even more the second time. The audiobook was so atmospheric and beautiful and I just adore this story so much!!!one of the coolest things i have ever experienced was an interactive play. you walked around from room to room in this large house where actors portrayed characters, acted out scenes, but also involved you. this book was like that, but only 1000x more magical. i mean, not to be dramatic, but i would bargain my soul to every one of the fates to be able to live in a world where i could participate in a caraval game. i am OBSESSED.there is nothing quite like the amazement and sensational wonder of
*record scratch**freeze frame*Yup, thats me. Scarlett Dragna, main character of the YA hit Caraval. Youre probably wondering how I ended up in this situation. If everysinglethingthathappenedinthiswholebook was anything to go by, it was through a combination of pointless lying, constant embarrassment, obsession with Some Guy, a big act of caring about a younger sister despite very little indication of that being true, unrelenting drama about a dumb wedding, repetitive interactions, weird
I feel the same way about Caraval as I did about The Star-Touched Queen last year.

It relies on its dreamy descriptions, purple prose, and a heavy helping of romance to make it dazzle. To take a quote from my review of The Star-Touched Queen, "if you buy into these metaphors, put on your
*Full Review Update!!* (Spoiler free) I cannot rave enough guys... this book wins everything. This has made it in to my absolute all time favorites. I can't even function normally to describe it... I am absolutely floored. Zero complaints. I enjoyed every sentence.. every page. I couldn't get enough. It was whimsical, off the charts electric, romantic, mysterious, enchanting, enthralling... full of twists and turns. So many that I thought the ending couldn't possibly live up to the mystery this
Read 2 | April 2019I am hERE to reread before Finale and also am just so happy to be melting back into this world. It's such a vivid, lush and gorgeous book, I pretty much can't contain myself. I do think Legendary is superior to the two, but I really appreciated Scarlett's journey through PTSD more this time. She's absolutely fighting through the trauma of abuse to live a life where she can make choices without spiralling into fear. I'm just...! I love Scarlett. (Tella is my fave and Legendary
