Pros
- Erin Morgenstern’s *The Night Circus* or *The Starless Sea.*
- The night circus & the starless sea by Erin morgenstern! Sort of fantasy vibes and pretty slow but the writing, world building, and characters are BEAUTIFUL
- The Starless Sea, by Emily Morgenstern, will probably scratch that same itch, I think.
- The Starless Sea, Erin Morgenstern
- ***The Night Circus*** by Erin Morgenstern, and ***The Starless Sea*** as well. Absolutely beautiful writing, prose, and story in both of these books.
Cons
- I've tried The Starless Sea, and while it definitely starts amazingly, the main character was unbearable, as well as his love story.
- It starts out great, but unfortunately I felt like it didn’t deliver on its premise and ended up falling flat. However, it has quite interesting commentary and some very fun bits.

The Night Circus or the Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern.
The only dual/multiple narration I liked was the starless sea, anything else was difficult to get through
I’ve been thinking about what my favourite / most impactful books have in common (The Starless Sea, the Raven Cycle, and the Girl who Drank the Moon)
