The Night Circus

Didn't finish. I didn't make it very far, simply because I have other books I want to read with more promise than this one. The only exciting thing about the book was the setting, which is very mysterious and enticing. The characters were all one-dimensional and the story didn't focus on one thing long enough to develop it interestingly. A story about dueling magicians in a mysterious circus has no excuse to be so boring. It's taken me a long time to pick up this book, which I've owned for over two years, and now I know why.
