just as magically romantic and breathtakingly enchanting the second time around. ✨

it has been said that those who do not believe in magic will never find it, and this book is physical proof that magic does exist. every page, every word, every letter made a home inside my heart, which began to beat in a steady and strong rhythm of “i believe, i believe, i believe.” this story has woven itself into the very fabric of my soul and will forever be a part of me. a truly captivating story that made me fall in love with reading all over again.

lily I … love this review as much as I love the book? :’) 💓


Anna Yay... So glad you liked it! :) I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's one of my favourite books, nonetheless ❤

Reynita ★ The Night Reader ★ Great review! To be honest, I'm still confused between reading it or not. It used to be on my want to read list but then I removed it. I feel like I want to read it but I kind of feel like I don't want to read it at the same time. Like I said before, I'm confused. 😭😭😭

Reynita ★ The Night Reader ★ Oh and I have a question, is there romance in this book? 😊

Ahhh please read it, Rey!! And yes, there is. :)


jessica lily - awww. you are so sweet! but nothing i can say would compare to this book. 💕

ana - yessss. this book is everything to me. im so glad you love it, too!

rey - i agree with lily, you should definitely read this!! and there is romance. i know it was a little too much for some people, but honestly, i thought the love story made the book that much more beautiful.


Fares Great review but now I miss this magical book and want to reread :(


jessica a reread is ALWAYS a good idea. ;)


Emilia Ann I NEED to reread this!


jessica you really do. 💁🏻


Fares Oh you're evil :|
I have other books to read but fine, I really miss reading this one and I've been thinking about it for over a year now, I'll do it as soon as I can

Clare Snow Thank you for reposting your review. Now I need to polish my review - I only just finished inhaling the magic of La Cirque de Reve 🎪☄

I hate romance in books & I didn't hate this slow burn, to explosion 💥


Bhavik (Semi Hiatus) I am so confused about whether I actually really liked the book or not haha!
Like I love all the descriptions , they are truly magical but then again I dont care about the current part? like I find there's something missing but cant seem to put word into it.

It was definitely better than Caraval..that's for sure.

Glad that you really enjoyed it :)


jessica oh, i actually really liked caraval. but then again, i have a soft spot for all circus/carnival books, so i might be biased. lol. but i am sorry neither book really worked out for you as much as you wanted!


Bhavik (Semi Hiatus) Haha its okay even if you're biased...books are meant to be loved but just like human relations some dont work out and thats okay :)
I think I am sucker for those too...do you have any other books in mind-carnival/circus related?
Oh and I am gonna read Legendary anyways :)


Maddie Fab review, Jessica!


jessica awww. thanks, babe!! x

You might like Freeks by Amanda Hocking. It has carnies ie. a "freak show." They travel around setting up their tents in diff places, but not a full circus. Its paranormal romance with magic


jessica thanks for replying, clare! bhavik, i would also recommend 'water for elephants' if you want more of a historical fiction feel! :)


Penni I love your review Jessica. It captured my exact feelings when I read the book.

Leah Aw great! Thanks ;)


Taylor Givens I'm so glad you enjoyed a second reading! I loved this book and have been wanting to reread it for awhile but have always been afraid that I won't love it as much the second time around.


jessica i had the exact same worry, but i just got to the point where i was missing this story so much and i think i love it even more now. i hope you get to reread it at some point - its worth it!! :)

Claire Whitmore My husband is reading this book at the moment. He has nothing but good things to say about it. I can't wait until he's done so I can get my hands on it :)
