A review by livinthebubble
The Circle by Mats Strandberg, Sara Bergmark Elfgren
Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.
This is a no from me, dog. I wanted The Craft, Winx Club, magical vibes and I got gárbàge.
From what I forced myself to read, there was only drama, random powers and more drama. All the characters have the same voice and I was struggling to distinguish between all 6 of them. Also, the authors decided to add every "teen problem" into this: suicide, depression, self-harm, eating disorders, fatphobia, bullying (honestly endless list) in graphic detail sometimes. Sorry, but no.
