The Night Circus: A Novel
by Erin Morgenstern
The Night Circus (7/10/2011)
I loved this book!!! It is mystical, magical and illusionary. The characters are well-defined. The plot keeps us guessing and is a real page turner.
This is a first book for Erin Morganstern and hopefully a best seller!

I loved reading this book. My husband and I visited Bhutan 20 years ago and were fascinated by the country. This book gives you a glimpse of how modern technology such as television, radio and outside influences are changing the country. You decide if it has been positive or negative!!!!
