Summary

Come one, come all, to Harrow Faire...and greet your sweetest nightmare.

Cora Glass’ humdrum existence as a bank teller flips upside down when a long-abandoned circus mysteriously returns to life. But the entry fee to this big-top show is far more than Cora bargained for.

A deal struck. A soul...stuck.

As Harrow Faire shines a spotlight on Cora, she discovers there are far more secrets in that three-ring nightmare than she could possibly imagine. Trapped in the world of the fiendish and alluring man known as the Puppeteer, Cora finds herself caught in a war between him and the reclusive Mr. Harrow. Both parties will stop at nothing - even murder - to get what they want.

And what they want...is her.

I enjoyed the introduction to the circus and its residents. I did get fed up with the main protagonist and her wining despite us as readers knowing what was happening but I am intrigued what will happen next.

it felt like it should be more interesting than it was. Truly interesting elements with world building and plot, but I still don't feel connected to any of the characters. Simon is just annoying with a bad accent. Cora (dear, cupcake -blergh)..

The right voice actor may have pulled some magic with this to help bring the characters to life, but eh. I just pushed through this and got no payoff anywhere.

Won't be getting book 2.

The premise was interesting.
