Book Review- The Night Circus

Ah.Where to start!
First of all I just started reading on the regular again and honestly I forgot how much I missed it. Normally during the summer while at the beach I read at least 8-10 books but since I no longer have that oasis I find it harder to find time to sit down and enjoy it even though the weather here allows for many a rainy afternoons that are perfect for reading.

 I choose Night Circus after meandering thru Barnes and Noble for about an hour.I do not regret my choice- it was amazing. I'm actually sad it ended- I found myself wishing it kept going. However all good things must come to an end. The book itself was detailed but not to the point of boring the reader with details that were mundane. I felt the story flowed along at a pace that was comfortable- not too fast were you felt that you missed details and not too slow where you felt if you skipped a few chapters you wouldn't miss any plot changes.
The book does jump around though the author puts dates so it is easy to follow.Toward the end of the book however it does merge together which I thought was clever. I really liked how the author gave ended chapters with unanswered questions- at times I was afraid I would forget something  however I did not have that feeling when the book ended.
The book itself is going to be made into a movie- but as most book to movie stories I'm sure the book will be better. I'm still interested to see how the present the story and visual arts that take place during the book. Supposedly its coming out in 2014- so we'll see.


I'm left now looking for a new book so if anyone has any suggestions throw them my way!
