The Night Circus

I really enjoyed this story. Characters that draw you in early, storylines that move along, changes in perspective and/or storyline is called out with a chapter heading, the author doesn't spend words taking you on tangents, and a bit of mystery that lasts thru the majority of the story are the hallmarks of my favorite stories.

The fact that the mysteries didn't involve gruesome murders was a pleasant surprise. It's nice to know these do exist! And I also enjoy the haziness that comes with stories based in 'the real world' with some magic thrown in and the storyline moves back and forth to create a blurry, dream quality. I believe it's this latter quality that I found in another of the author's books which put this book on my TBR list.
