This week, we’re thrilled to start our discussions of Erin Morgenstern’s magical, enthralling The Night Circus, which landed this debut author a seven-figure advance and hit the bestseller lists within mere weeks of release. For the event, Alex and I are joined by our newest Chatelaine book club member, assistant editor Lora Grady. This time out, we read pages 1 to 131 — and trust me, it was hard to limit our reading to that first part of the book and not devour the rest of it!
