I can't stop thinking about this series, so it deserves to be at least a four star.

This was really fun. For some reason, I went into this expecting nothing more than just a magical carnival, so I was very surprised to say the least. 

I really enjoyed Scarlet as a main character, and her love for her sister, Donatella was a beautiful relationship to read about. Watching them go to these extreme lengths to try and protect each other was truly heart warming.

I also really enjoyed the love story. Scarlet's love interest,
Julian
, is also a really great character, and I really enjoyed his personality. I hope I get to see more of them and their relationship in the next two books, even though
I know the focus switches to Donatella in this next book
