What did I recently finish reading?

What am I currently reading?
I just started on The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern and so far it's going great! I'm only a couple chapters in so I can't really make much of an overall impression, therefore here's the goodreads synopsis:
"The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night.
But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway—a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them, this is a game in which only one can be left standing, and the circus is but the stage for a remarkable battle of imagination and will. Despite themselves, however, Celia and Marco tumble headfirst into love—a deep, magical love that makes the lights flicker and the room grow warm whenever they so much as brush hands.
True love or not, the game must play out, and the fates of everyone involved, from the cast of extraordinary circus performers to the patrons, hang in the balance, suspended as precariously as the daring acrobats overhead. Written in rich, seductive prose, this spell-casting novel is a feast for the senses and the heart." -goodreads.com
What do I think I'll read next?
Well, I have a few library requests that should be coming in anytime now. My next book will be either:
Delirium (Delirium #1) by Lauren Oliver
City of Fallen Angels (TMI #4) by Cassandra Clare
or, by some miraculous feat...
A Feast for Crows (ASoIaF #4) by George R.R. Martin
*EDIT* Apparently, as I was typing this blog, I received an email from my library's ebook site saying that Delirium is now ready for check out! So off I go to check it out :)
I really enjoyed The Night Circus, I thought it was imaginative! Hope you like it.

Lots of good books here. You're one ahead of me on Martin. And Rime of the Ancient Mariner brings out the Iron Maiden fan in me. I probably should read that poem someday.
ReplyDeleteHere's my WWW Wednesday and Giveaway.
