I’m looking for suggestions for books that have a dark carnival like theme to it.
I’ve always been oddly interested in the creepy circus kinda vibe- my all time favorite series is the Cirque du Freak series by Darren Shan- I literally could not put down those books in middle school. I loved A Series of Unfortunate Events books in elementary school and my
favorite was the one where they were at the carnival.
I’ve been listening to a lot of Insane Clown Posse and they have the whole Dark Carnival/Joker Cards lore and that just made me recall how much I loved reading books about a dark carnival setting with devious creatures and all that stuff, and made me want to read a book with a similar kind of vibe.
I’ve been honestly slacking on reading- I used to be a bookworm in elementary and middle school. I feel like a good book or series about a creepy carnival or similar setting would bring me back into the joys of reading, and not something that’s just about my favorite musicians or athletes.
Thank you so much for any suggestions! 😊
