I really enjoyed this book, as it gave me the Alice in Wonderland vibes I love. Unfortunately most of the characters annoyed me, but the strange twists kept me reading to the last. I love the idea of strange and wonderful mysterious new worlds and I wish Scarlett had spent more time experiencing the magic of Caraval than worrying. Hopefully the next books explore more.
