Review
A while back I did a review of a book with my notes that I took while reading a book. I read Night Circus for book club, and I have decided I’ll make bullet points of all of the stickies I have in my book. (along with short explanations, of course.)
Who makes a wager on someone that is supposed to be important to them???
There’s a WTF???? moment involving a knife, and what healing. But seriously…. WTF????
I was happy to finally get some action, and not as much detail around page 100.
There’s a moment where Chandresh looks ill, and I wonder if Marco has something to do with it?
Favorite quote: “The finest pleasures are always the unexpected ones.” page 177
Love the interactions between Marco & Celia
Love the image this section paints: “When she opens her eyes, they are standing on the quarterdeck of a ship in the middle of the ocean. Only the ship is made of books, it’s sails thousands of overlapping pages, and the sea it floats upon is dark black ink. Tiny lights hang across the sky, like tightly packed stars bright as the sun.” page 347
Perfect example of lost love: “You believe you could not live with the pain. Such pain is not lived with. It is only endured.” page 461
The first paragraph on page 505 explains stories & tales. I love the way it’s explained as something that can dig its way into your soul, and stay there.
