I didn’t know this series was a prequel to the “Once Upon a Broken Heart” series. I started to tuck into OUABH, and something made me stop 2 pages in & look online to see if I should read Caraval first. Everything I could find (while avoiding spoilers) said yes, read Caravel first, but it wasn’t 100% necessary. There were some characters in common, Caravel would help you understand the magic better, but the biggest reason I saw was that reading OUABH first would spoil the ending of the Caraval series. So, I stopped OUABH, started Caraval, & boy am I glad I did. So much magical, romantic, WHAT IS GOING ON, goodness.
I can’t wait to see where this series goes!
