The Girl in the Dark (The Dark Circus Trilogy, Book 3) - HP Mallory & JR Rain

Brilliant conclusion to this spooky series. 

This is the final book in this dark trilogy from HP Mallory and JR Rain. The story is set in the Cirque du Noir; a circus of curiosities travelling through 1930s rural USA. 

This is a fantastic series. It is dark, full of suspense and twists and I inhaled books two and three in a day. Excellent character development, fantastic worldbuilding and kept me guessing right up until close to the end. Wonderful! 

This has a real Twilight Zone feel to it. It is a creepy, exciting, suspenseful and intriguing series from start to finish. I absolutely love it.

The Girl on the Poster (The Dark Circus Trilogy, Book 2) - HP Mallory & JR Rain

A thrilling read. Haunting and spooky Cirque du Noir 

This is the second book in this dark trilogy from HP Mallory and JR Rain. The story is set in 1930s rural USA. 

I loved this book. It’s even darker than the first and the mysteries uncovered in book one have only deepened in book two.

The characters are well written, the world building is excellent and the story is gripping. I love the way these authors write. I feel pulled into their world. I found that I could relate well to the main character, despite her life being nothing like mine. There were times during reading that I feared for her safety. 

This story is not straightforward. It didn’t progress in a way that I had assumed it would and I’m glad of that. I need answers so I am jumping straight into book three.

The reading order so far:

The Girl Who Joined The Circus (The Dark Circus Trilogy, Book 1) - HP Mallory & JR Rain

Fantastic start to this dark and spooky series.

This is the first book in a new dark and spooky trilogy from HP Mallory and JR Rain. The story is set in 1930s rural USA.

I loved this book. I genuinely couldn’t put it down and I blasted through it in one evening. Definitely a page-turner. Excellent, fascinating characters and fantastic world building.

The story is told from the point of view of its main character, nineteen-year-old Bindi, who has left her home to meet her best friend Amelia and join the Cirque du Noir as a contortionist. Amelia doesn’t show up for their meeting so Bindi goes ahead and joins on her own.

As its name suggests, the Cirque du Noir is a dark and twisted place. Many of the performers are what would then have been considered to be freaks. Reality is blurred and all is not what it seems. 

It would seem that Bindi is expected, though she cannot work out how or why. There are posters with pictures of a young woman who looks exactly like her and both the owner and the manager feel very familiar to her, although she could swear she’s never met them before. The longer Bindi stays, the less she can remember about her life before. She is drawn to the forbidden black caravan at the outskirts of the Cirque; a place she has been warned never to enter alone. Naturally, her curiosity gets the better of her and what she finds in there is shocking.

I absolutely cannot wait to get into book two.
