Caraval has been sitting on my TBR shelf for quite a while, should I read it and why? (WITHOUT SPOILERS)

Wouldn’t waste my time ? it had so much potential but fell flat for me
I DNFed it.
Do it! It’s wonderful! Not at all what you think it is going to be!
Do it! It’s so amazing and magical. I loved it so much
Took me 3 attempts to finished but it was good. Legendary was definitely better x
I read it in one sitting. It wasn’t great but it wasn’t bad either
Yes!!!
I loved it, loved the magic of Caraval, description and world building made you want to be there
Just finished reading it, really loved it!
@Meagan yes! This book was not for me.
I love the magic and the descriptions. I’m also a sucker for pretty dresses.
pretty MAGIC dresses
Omg read it !
YES YES YESSSSS
Yes! Book 2 is just as good!
@Meagan Felt the same way, was happy to move on to something else
You should read it immediately because it is without a doubt one of the most beautiful books I’ve read, it’s enchanting and builds a beautiful world, and it leaves you wanting more. There are plot twists, shocks, and then the second book also has all those aspects, the story develops into something amazing! Also you should read it because the 3rd and finale book is out on the 9th so you have a couple weeks to read it and the second book to be ready for the release!!!
Yes! It’s like a magic carnival game of survivor. Totally read it.
Do it. Immediately.
I didn’t like it the first time I read it but then I read it again and loved it
Yes!!!
Yeeees, it was an amazing read i did enjoy it a lot
Read it. It’s a very beautiful story! Plus the last one is out in May
Caraval was ok because the lead was boring. But do read it because the 2nd book Legenderay is the literally the best release last year!
Yes! This is what I was going to say!
Meagan Mercer like what? I haven’t read it, just interested what shld be read instead!
Katie Carr for underrated books I would suggest the Snow Like Ashes trilogy, The Kiss of Deception trilogy, even the Knife of Never Letting Go most people would say is for younger teenagers but it kept me on my toes, had in depth characters and does actually have some mature topics. As for highly popular reads I would suggest Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunter series, Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses and Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse!
Caraval was a great read, I hear Legendary is even better (it’s sitting here staring at me ??), and I’m going with Finale will be just as good (when it releases in a week and a half). Do it.
Caraval was really good! Legendary blew my mind and I’ve preordered Finale. I love this trilogy.
I had a great time reading it up until the last few chapters then it became a bit of a mess. I’m waiting for Finale to come out to read book 2.
I will agree that Legendary was better, but i will suggest trying it on audiobook, the narrator is fantastic and does a wonderful job pulling you into the story and selling the magic and acting as the different characters.
Just finished Caraval and starting Legendary! Do it!!!
I like a book with more highs and lows. I think I didn’t like it because there weren’t enough highs for me. The book was magical, yet not enough fun for me. I think it was good, but just not what I wanted or was expecting.
No – I actually liked the book until the last 50 pages. I was seriously annoyed by the end.
@Amanda I agree with you on that but I’m still going to continue on with it since I liked the majority of it
Caravel was alright, 2nd one was better. I will be reading the 3rd
@Samantha finale right? Release date?
YES!!!
I hated it, personally.
It was alright, but not overly memorable. I read it 3 months before the second book came out, and when I went to read the second one I couldn’t remember anything from the first one so I didn’t ? not really re-read worthy either
Yes! 1st one isn’t all that great, but Legendary is MUCH better!
Yessss u should
Absolutely!! Loved it but I agree with others, Legendary was SO much better. Finale releases May 9th I believe and I will buying it ASAP
Yes!!!
Because the final book comes out next week and the series is wonderful. Except book 2!
I read 2/3 of the book and sat it down 2 years ago. Lol my bookmark is still there and I’ll finish it someday. I liked The Night Circus way better.
Read it!!!!!! I’m re-reading Caraval and Legendary before Finale comes out. I’m so ready!
@Jardin so am I. Finished Caraval yesterday and started Legendary this morning ?
@Jardin I’m re-reading too! I can’t wait for Finale!!!!
One of my all time favorites! I love Caraval and Legendary ❤??
Bored me beyond belief. I barely finished it.
Yes yes yes!!
Yes! It’s a little slow, but a great read!
Yesssss it’s so good!
YES
I personally found it quite slow and lacked the wow factor it was hyped up to be. Haven’t read the others in the series as I was so disappointed in the first!
Others will love it.. All personal preference 🙂
I really enjoyed it. It took a little bit to get into but picked up pace about a third in for me. The rest of the book i really enjoyed and Legendary was great. Just my opinion but they were a little different than the typical YA tropes so popular right now (not that those are bad).
I really encourage you to pick it up. Takes a bit to get going but then it’s a trippy delight.
It is really good, it is fast passes so you won’t get bored.
Hands down you should read it! Second one is out now. Third one will be coming out beginning of May. I’m tempted to go buy all three and read them in one swoop. (Re-read the first one too)
Read ittt
Yes! You should read it so you can go on and read the second which is much better than first! Perfect time as last one is out 9th May!
Yes!!!! ❤❤❤
It was okay but not great for me. Meh.
Yes, because no matter what anyone else says you might enjoy this book and it could turn out being one of your favs
I loved this book. It made me smell colours.
I really liked it, it was interesting and has attractive characters. And the plot is unique!
Because it’s the best book!
It’s a really fun book, I loved it ?
Yess!! It’s a really fun book, especially if you love the carnival vibe! ?
I’ve barely started it myself! So far it’s good and I’m about 80 pages in
It’s a really fun book, I loved it ?
Yes. Love it
Great book!! It’s very descriptive! It takes you there!
