Summary

A heart to protect。 A debt to repay。 A game to win。

After being swept up in the magical world of Caraval， Donatella Dragna has finally escaped her father and saved her sister Scarlett from a disastrous arranged marriage。 The girls should be celebrating， but Tella isn’t yet free。 She made a desperate bargain with a mysterious criminal， and what Tella owes him no one has ever been able to deliver: Caraval Master Legend’s true name。

The only chance of uncovering Legend’s identity is to win Caraval， so Tella throws herself into the legendary competition once more—and into the path of the murderous heir to the throne， a doomed love story， and a web of secrets…including her sister's。 Caraval has always demanded bravery， cunning， and sacrifice。 But now the game is asking for more。 If Tella can’t fulfill her bargain and deliver Legend’s name， she’ll lose everything she cares about—maybe even her life。 But if she wins， Legend and Caraval will be destroyed forever。

Welcome， welcome to Caraval。。。the games have only just begun。

کتاب دوم هم تموم شد و من بیشتر از قبل عاشق اسطوره شدم چه قدر میتونه یه آدم جذاب باشه توی این جلد کمتر خبری از اسکارلت و جولیان بود اما با تلا و دانته بیشتر آشنا شدم و از شگفتی و قدرت این دختر خیلی خوشم آمد جلد یک رو یکم بیشتر دوست داشتم ولی بازم میگم ارزش این همه مدت خوندن رو داشت …

Actual rating: 4。5 stars！ Everything was a bit predictable for me， but it was still super exciting and magical！！ I love this world and it was so fun to be able to dive back into everything。 I can’t wait to read Finale and dive into OUABH！！

This book didn’t hold my interest as much as the first。 It seemed really repetitious， much like the first book but with differences in the minute details。 It did end on an interesting note though， so I’ll read the third to see where the story goes。

I finished this beauty last night and completely forgot to uploaded my progress in here。 If you were curious， I basically had a melt down over the ending and every time something related to Legend came around。 But honestly can you blame me， folks？Also， I bought the paperback edition of this series and so I got to read the annotations Stephanie made over some chapters… let me tell ya， that made this gal very happy 🤩 And on that topic， just wanted to say that this author is SO funny and relatable I finished this beauty last night and completely forgot to uploaded my progress in here。 If you were curious， I basically had a melt down over the ending and every time something related to Legend came around。 But honestly can you blame me， folks？Also， I bought the paperback edition of this series and so I got to read the annotations Stephanie made over some chapters… let me tell ya， that made this gal very happy 🤩 And on that topic， just wanted to say that this author is SO funny and relatable I laughed out loud a couple of times with her remarks over her own past drafts of this stunning book。In other news: Donatella is the new love of my life but just don’t make me get into Jacks and Dante。 Like， even if I wanted to I don’t think I could describe everything I feel for these two characters。 I would let them end me ANY day of my existence。Needless to say， I cannot wait to get （and inhale） the third one！ 。。。more

I finished Legendary yesterday and I clearly needed some time to process this majestic second book of the Caraval series before writing a review。 I loved every single chapter of this book and I have to restrain myself from reading finale right now ！ I found Donatella’s character much more interesting than Scarlett’s because she dares to say what she truly thinks which lead to a lot of very interesting discussions…Still can’t choose between Jacks and Dante though。

"Not everyone gets a true ending。 There are two types of endings because most people give up at the part of the story where things are the worst， where the situation feels hopeless。 But that's when hope is needed most。 Only those who persevers can find their true ending。"This sequel to Caraval picks up right where the last finished， and draws you right back into another twisted game， this time centered on the second sister Tella。 And oh my word is it good！ These stories are full of such brillian "Not everyone gets a true ending。 There are two types of endings because most people give up at the part of the story where things are the worst， where the situation feels hopeless。 But that's when hope is needed most。 Only those who persevers can find their true ending。"This sequel to Caraval picks up right where the last finished， and draws you right back into another twisted game， this time centered on the second sister Tella。 And oh my word is it good！ These stories are full of such brilliant intrigue， always questioning what is real， wondering if you can truly trust these characters， while rooting for them all the same。 And the journeys of the MCs Scarlet and Donatella are brilliant， as we watch them constantly facing their fears and seemingly impossible choices， rising stronger as truly free and independent women through the strength of their choices and sacrifices。"The safe choice often felt like not making a choice at all， like politely stepping back and allowing others with more power to do what they saw fit。""She was finally the hero。 All it had cost her was everything。" I cannot put these books down and my workouts and housekeeping have been suffering as a result。 😂 I cannot recommend them enough and I am desperately waiting for my request of the third and final book to become available！ 。。。more

Mi è piaciuto più del primo， probabilmente perché Donatella è un personaggio meno passivo di Rossella， per quanto anche qui ci sia un replica del lato "romance" tra lei e il bello-e-dannato che è crudele con tutte tranne che con lei， e alcune vicende della trama non abbiano molto senso。Altra cosa che ho apprezzato della storia è che - come mi aspettavo già dal primo libro - finalmente si scopre qualcosa di più sulla madre delle protagoniste， anzi， direi che "Legend" è incentrato proprio sul mist Mi è piaciuto più del primo， probabilmente perché Donatella è un personaggio meno passivo di Rossella， per quanto anche qui ci sia un replica del lato "romance" tra lei e il bello-e-dannato che è crudele con tutte tranne che con lei， e alcune vicende della trama non abbiano molto senso。Altra cosa che ho apprezzato della storia è che - come mi aspettavo già dal primo libro - finalmente si scopre qualcosa di più sulla madre delle protagoniste， anzi， direi che "Legend" è incentrato proprio sul mistero della sua scomparsa anni prima。A questo punto leggerò anche il terzo per sapere come va a finire。 。。。more

This book is brilliant。 It took two days to read and was way better than Caraval。 In Caraval I didn't like Donatella， but now I know more about her she is quite likeable。I was once again wrong with my predictions as to who Legend was。 This book is brilliant。 It took two days to read and was way better than Caraval。 In Caraval I didn't like Donatella， but now I know more about her she is quite likeable。I was once again wrong with my predictions as to who Legend was。 。。。more

Sentences along the lines of “the street smelled of flutes and long lost loves” just make this book jarring to me。 I just don’t know if it’s trying too hard with the fantasy descriptions。 Add to that the author uses the main character’s name every other sentences and it’s so distracting。 I enjoyed the first book much more but this one was a chore。 Tella felt that if tella felt too strongly tella would upset tella。 I’m going to power through the third book and hope it grips me more。 I kinda just Sentences along the lines of “the street smelled of flutes and long lost loves” just make this book jarring to me。 I just don’t know if it’s trying too hard with the fantasy descriptions。 Add to that the author uses the main character’s name every other sentences and it’s so distracting。 I enjoyed the first book much more but this one was a chore。 Tella felt that if tella felt too strongly tella would upset tella。 I’m going to power through the third book and hope it grips me more。 I kinda just wanna get it over with。 I love fantasy and magic but something is just not clicking with me and this author。 I don’t feel connected to the characters， the overly flouncy descriptions of smells and people bothers me but… I will see what happens。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 I enjoyed this story a lot- took me a little bit to get into because I wasn’t very interested in Tella after reading the first book， but I ended up liking her more than Scarlett。 A lot of the twists were predictable， and Dante leaving Tella right at the end just didn’t sit right with me， so I ended this book a little frustrated since I， too， had fallen in love with Dante。 But overall， I liked the magic and the heightened risk that came with this book！

Oh my God the way this completely TRUMPED Caraval。 I LIVED for Tella's personality and character development。 Some of it became repetitive like traits of Scarlett did in Caraval but regardless the STRENGTH of Tella。 Her cunning and wit。 I loved all of her and found her narrative far more relatable than Scarlett。 The TWIST AT THE END！！！！ I feel like it was slightly predictable but I can't help but be curious on how her love story progresses between her and Dante。 I'm saving the best and mysteriou Oh my God the way this completely TRUMPED Caraval。 I LIVED for Tella's personality and character development。 Some of it became repetitive like traits of Scarlett did in Caraval but regardless the STRENGTH of Tella。 Her cunning and wit。 I loved all of her and found her narrative far more relatable than Scarlett。 The TWIST AT THE END！！！！ I feel like it was slightly predictable but I can't help but be curious on how her love story progresses between her and Dante。 I'm saving the best and mysterious character for the last: Jack's！ OH。 MY。 What a character。 I felt like he might be explored more along with the Fates in Finale but man did I want more out of him and Tella。 I can't help but root for the villan in majority of all stories。 I will say this didn't leave me begging to read Finale as much as Caraval left me ready for Legendary but I cannot wait to see how this ends。 。。。more

It took me a while to get into this story。 Having loved the first book so much this felt a bit slow at the start。 However， from about 1/3 of the way in I was engrossed in the whole magical world again。 The ending sets everything up really well for book 3。 Looking forward to reading it！

This book wasn’t as exciting and enticing as the first book in the caraval series。 So many plot twists and sacrifices happen throughout the whole novel。 And I can’t lie that it was pretty good and that i did enjoy it。 Although some moments were as dull as being stuck in traffic。 It made me lose my mind and even skip through some words。 A lot of the scenes were descriptions and not dialogues and that’s one thing I absolutely hate about books。 The book was pretty good tho， it did end on a cliffhan This book wasn’t as exciting and enticing as the first book in the caraval series。 So many plot twists and sacrifices happen throughout the whole novel。 And I can’t lie that it was pretty good and that i did enjoy it。 Although some moments were as dull as being stuck in traffic。 It made me lose my mind and even skip through some words。 A lot of the scenes were descriptions and not dialogues and that’s one thing I absolutely hate about books。 The book was pretty good tho， it did end on a cliffhanger so i will jump on to reading the final book in the trioligy right away。 。。。more

I have to be honest: at first I didn't like the idea of ​​the story being told from Tella's point of view。 After "Caraval"， I developed a kind of dislike for her for the way she had behaved with Scarlett。After a while， however， I began to glimpse in her a great courage， the desire to live and adventure， stubbornness and the desire to finally be loved by someone。 I'm glad I didn't listen to the first impressions！I loved Dante much more than I loved Julian in "Caraval" and I did really like Jacks！ I have to be honest: at first I didn't like the idea of ​​the story being told from Tella's point of view。 After "Caraval"， I developed a kind of dislike for her for the way she had behaved with Scarlett。After a while， however， I began to glimpse in her a great courage， the desire to live and adventure， stubbornness and the desire to finally be loved by someone。 I'm glad I didn't listen to the first impressions！I loved Dante much more than I loved Julian in "Caraval" and I did really like Jacks！The story is full of mystery and intrigue。 In no time you will find yourself completely captured and immersed in the magic of Caraval， once again。 But maybe， this time， it won't be just a game。 。。。more

4/5It was actually really good， but it was the type of book where I didn’t read it all at once。 The one weird thing about this book was Scarlett， I felt like she was acting really off throughout the whole thing…

I loved this book • Tella was such an enjoyable character to read， she's strong willed and flirty and so likeable。 •The enemies to lovers sub-plot in this was *chef's kiss*。 •The storyline surrounding The Fates and The Deck of Destiny， was so original and unique。 I loved this book • Tella was such an enjoyable character to read， she's strong willed and flirty and so likeable。 •The enemies to lovers sub-plot in this was *chef's kiss*。 •The storyline surrounding The Fates and The Deck of Destiny， was so original and unique。 。。。more

I didn’t enjoy this one as much as Caraval。 It felt like the magic and wonder in book two lost its shine。 It was the repetitiveness of the game， and the stagnant chunk in the middle， that were tedious and slow。 But I loved Tella - she is spunky， confident， and witty， and so easy to adore with her firey spirit。 And…where was the lust？ I was very bored with the ‘kisses that ended all kisses’ and the image that every man was ‘so beautiful it could cause damage’。 The lack-lustre descriptions of chas I didn’t enjoy this one as much as Caraval。 It felt like the magic and wonder in book two lost its shine。 It was the repetitiveness of the game， and the stagnant chunk in the middle， that were tedious and slow。 But I loved Tella - she is spunky， confident， and witty， and so easy to adore with her firey spirit。 And…where was the lust？ I was very bored with the ‘kisses that ended all kisses’ and the image that every man was ‘so beautiful it could cause damage’。 The lack-lustre descriptions of chaste mouth action added to the boredom。 I wish there was more character development beyond Tella， and real connection between her and the main players。The mysteries weren’t shocking， like Caraval。 It was a cookie-cutter， basic narrative that lost a lot of appeal and newness after Caraval。 。。。more
