Look Ma! My hand

My lifelong dream to become a model was fulfilled this past August when my SIL, a very talented photographer (you can see her work here) asked me to model for Suetables. You can buy any or all of these wonderful bracelets here.

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I couldn't wait to dive into this book and as I posted a few days ago, I already loved the book because of the cover and I wasn't disappointed. I read this one slowly, or at least slowly for me. I didn't want it to end as much as I wanted to see how the author would bring all the pieces together. It has complex and rich descriptions of the circus and its performers.

"On this evening, Mme. Padva wears a dress of black silk, hand embroidered with intricate patterns of cherry blossoms, something like a kimono reincarnated as a gown. Her silver hair is piled atop her head and held in place with a small jewel black cage. A choker of perfectly cut scarlet rubies circles her neck, putting forth a vague impression of her throat having been slit. The overall effect is slightly morbid and incredibly elegant."

I wanted to enter into the pages and live there. The plot itself is complicated and the time shifts back and forth and can be somewhat confusing, I was very glad I had actually bought the hardcover and wasn't trying to keep track of things on my Kobo. There is mystery, magic and some romance - a Harry Potter for grown ups. There, of course, is already talk of a movie. The producers of the Twilight series have bought the rights and while I think it would be wonderful on the screen, I hope they don't turn it into another teen fantasy flick.
