Sinossi
Il mondo, per Rossella Dragna, ha sempre avuto i confini della minuscola isola dove vive insieme alla sorella Tella e al potente, crudele padre. Se ha sopportato questi anni di forzato esilio è stato grazie al sogno di partecipare a Caraval, uno spettacolo itinerante misterioso quanto leggendario in cui il pubblico partecipa attivamente; purtroppo, l'imminente, combinato matrimonio a cui il padre la sta costringendo significa la rinuncia anche a quella possibilità di fuga. E invece Rossella riceve il tanto desiderato invito, e con l'aiuto di un misterioso marinaio, insieme a Tella fugge dall'isola e dal suo destino... Appena arrivate a Caraval, però, Tella viene rapita da Legend, il direttore dello spettacolo che nessuno ha mai incontrato: Rossella scopre in fretta che l'edizione di Caraval che sta per iniziare ruota tutta intorno alla sorella, e che ritrovarla è lo scopo ultimo del gioco, non solo suo, ma di tutti i fortunati partecipanti. Tutto ciò che accade in Caraval sono solo trucchi ed illusioni, questo ha sempre sentito dire Rossella. Eppure, sogno e veglia iniziano a confondersi e negare la magia diventa impossibile. Ma che sia realtà o finzione poco conta: Rossella ha cinque notti per ritrovare Tella, e intanto deve evitare di innescare un pericoloso effetto domino che la porterebbe a perderla per sempre...

I feel the same way about Caraval as I did about The Star-Touched Queen last year. In fact, many of my comments are the same, so if you enjoyed that book then it's probable you will like this one also. Caraval is a fantasy without world-building or significant character development . It relies on its Leggi tutto

How can I write a review for this giant ball of awesome and do it justice? I was intrigued by the summary from the second I found this was coming out, but had no clue if it would live up to the hype. The back cover boasts of “The spell-casting fantasy destined to become a sensation” and Fox 2000 has Leggi tutto

This freaking book HOLY CRAP. I have a feeling this book is going to be a huge hit when it comes out, and rightfully so.

4.5 stars! One of my favorite parts of this book is the world! I would LOVE to attend Caraval. It's so magical and dark and mysterious. I also love that this book combines romance, fantasy, and mystery. I loved following all the clues along with Scarlett to try and find her sister. At no point did I Leggi tutto
