Legendary (Caraval, 2)

The “immersive and imaginative“ (USA TODAY) games continue in the #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestseller LEGENDARY, the mesmerizing sequel to CARAVAL

Donatella and Scarlett Dragna escaped their cruel father and made it out of Caraval alive, but the games aren’t over yet. What Scarlett doesn’t know is that, in order to gain their freedom, Tella made a deal with a mysterious stranger and now it’s time to pay.

Except what Tella owes is something that no one has ever been able to deliver: the true name of Caraval Master Legend. Tella’s only chance at uncovering Legend’s true identity is to enter the dangerous game of Caraval once more, and win. But what will she have to sacrifice to do that?

Don’t miss FINALE, the stunning conclusion to the Caraval trilogy—out now!

4.5 ⭐️ I absolutely love this whimsical series! There was more world building in this one which I really appreciated, and some pretty shocking developments! Can’t wait to continue with book 3!

It's not a horrible story but just like the first one it's kind of everywhere and also doesn't really give much. I'm not sure if that makes sense but that's how I felt. It was another adventure/love story but in the pov of the character I like even less than the first story. I found myself wishing it was back to Scarlett and Julian. Something about Tella just irks me. I thought it was obvious who legend was in the first book and it was just a constant reminder of who it was until they told you who it was as if it was a shocker. Im going to continue power throughing this series but the more I read the more i feel like I'll be disappointed.

So far the only interesting character I've read about are Aiko and Jack's. Jack's reasoning for being a villian is kind of boring and I know he has his own series so I hope that's better. I assume Aiko is just gonna be a side character that shows up from time to time.

4.5 ⭐️ As much as I enjoyed Caraval, I enjoyed Legendary that much more. It's been a couple months since I read Caraval but I don't remember liking Donatella very much...but I enjoyed her character much more in this one. I really didn't want Legend to be who he ended up being, but it was kind of inevitable the way it was set up, and I'm curious to see how it plays out in the next book.
