I enjoyed the fantastical nature of this book, especially the circus itself. It made me wish it was real. If it was, I would certainly be counted among the reveurs. I could spend days there. The romance in the novel is touching without being cliche or overdone. I was also intrigued by the use of Marseilles tarot cards in the story and took some pleasure in the moments where I had to do some research to understand a card's significance. A thoroughly enjoyable fantasy.
