I do still want to revisit it in the future, see if I get anything else out of it when I am not rushing through the story. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I also know that it is long overdue to write about this book. ![]() I loved the concept, I loved the setting, and the characters were all very interesting, but didn’t feel connected to each other, the way that I would have liked. The Night Circus absolutely is a slow burn, and takes a lot of imagination to visualize a lot of what was going on. I couldn’t appreciate the story, or the world, because I was too distracted by the details within it’s pages. I think that there was just too much description, to the point of distraction. ![]() I didn’t feel like the “love story” everyone raves about was particularly astonishing, nor did I really lose myself in the circus. I don’t know what I was expecting but it was definitely something different. I know a lot of people swear by it, and adore it but I thought it was just ok. I have tried now for several months, and NOTHING! I got and finished it last December, so I read through it pretty quickly, but I still don’t have much to say about it. I just cannot drum up anything to say about this book. If you liked THUG or books featuring similar content, this is definitely worth reading. It actually made me feel tense throughout the first half of the book because I knew that the brother gets shot, but that scene doesn’t happen for quite a while. Unfortunately, TJWH did not quite pack the same punch that THUG did, though. These are issues that are sadly customary for this community, and need to be addressed. I personally have now read at least four books with similar subject matter, and it still haunts and shocks me every time. This is a hot button topic at the moment in the US and many authors have stepped up to write about their experiences and thoughts on the subject. Like THUG, Tyler Johnson is about a black family who is dealing with the death of a child due to police brutality. Here are a few books that I struggled to come up with full reviews for.Īfter the popularity of The Hate U Give (by Angie Thomas) last year, more and more people having been seeking out similar stories, and I am not an exception. I mean it totally is, but it would take a lot of time away from actually reading more books because truthfully, sometimes, I just do not have a whole lot to say about a book after I’ve finished it. I am starting to understand the burden of feeling like you need to review every single book you read, and that is just not plausible.
