I am pleased to finally come across someone who loved City of Masks as well! That series (the first three books in it anyway) has been one of my favourites for so long!

I never read past book 3 either, but I reread the first few so many times! Venice has always been so magical to me because of Stravagazna.

I do think the first three are the best – probably because it was meant to be a trilogy (I think…). And same! I actually visited there two years ago and it was beautiful! Is that why you’ll be going soon, too?
