Review: A superb read - Whimsical at times but with steel and fire throughout, The Museum Of Extraordinary Things is an Extraordinary Thing itself. The characters are built with depth and feeling and the tale itself pulls you along at a cracking pace. If you love reading you will, in this reader's opinion love this book. It crosses stylistic boundaries as part fantasy, part thriller and part historical fiction and draws you in to its world of magic, science and intrigue with ease. At times some of the scenes depicted are definitely not for kids but at the same time it manages to elicit child like feelings of wonder at some of the exhibits described herein. This is the first novel I've read from Alice Hoffman and I shall be looking to see if she has anymore as soon as I push 'submit' on this review. 5/5 for me all day long.
Review: New York, New York. WOW! What a kind of town. - The book relates a history of the early development of New York that is unknown to the majority of readers in the UK and possibly in the USA. It is totally fascinating - more so than the story of the fictional characters in the book. Not that the fictional story is not good. It is - but somehow, the major character is the early and developing city of New York. So, my sincere congratulations go to the author for the fantastic research task that underlies the fictional story. I doubt it could be bettered.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic read
*by P***T on 12 November 2017*

I absolutely loved this book. It reminded me of two books I love, The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern and Nights at the Circus by Angela Carter. I loved the setting. I really enjoyed fiction set in circuses, freak shows, funland’s and those sorts of places. They have huge potential. The author brings the setting to life. Coney Island and the sideshows and exhibits become a place of mystery and wonder if a little sinister and creepy. I loved the characters. I liked how the novel alternated between Coralie and Eddie’s perspective, showing how their two lives become gradually, fatally linked. Coralie and Eddie are great characters. I also loved the other people Coralie encounters growing up at her father’s museum. Coralie’s father is a horrible person. His exhibit is little more than a freak show, and one he rules with sheer cruelty. I was horrified when Coralie, with her deformed hands becomes a mermaid at the museum. What kind of monster could do that to his child. He does worse and my flesh crawled at times. The Museum of Extraordinary Things is not an easy book to read. Coralie’s father is a monster. The book is, however, a joy to read.
