Can't Get Enough

I'm fifty pages from the end of Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus, and I wish it wouldn't end. It's been a long time since a book has mesmerized -- hypnotized -- me the way this one has. 


Just read this line:  He does not feel confined, only separate, as though he and Celia are overlapping the circus, rather than contained within in. 


The threads of this story are billowing ribbons floating on magic currents of air, and as they twist and weave together a fabric emerges that I want to wrap myself up in, forever.


I look forward to reviewing this book. I could talk about it for days. In fact, I am dedicating my next two newsletters over at Writing.com to the tone and voice Morgenstern created in The Night Circus. As always, I will publish those newsies here too.


If you're looking for a book that will transport you away from everyday life and into a world where extraordinary and enchanted possibilities exist, to witness a love story so unique your heart will squeeze, you need to pick up a copy of The Night Circus today.
