Stravaganza City Of Masks Mary Hoffman Books

Please understand that all my reviews focus on the interests of my middle school students.

I have had the second book of this series in my in-class library for years but only recently had the money to complete the series. That led me to finally reading the first book.

Wow. What a read! Kids will love it when they try it. A plot that is easy to follow but still twists and turns and surprises! A fully realized alternate reality that is impressively real. A hero that is vulnerable but brave. A remarkably eloquent treatment of a teenager who is battling cancer. A heroine who is fiesty and independent in a male-dominated soceity.

This is the kind of book that as a reading teacher I long for: a book the whole family can read and enjoy together. I love it when my kids and their parents are reading the same book.

I will warn you of one thing: if you are a parent, the ending will move you. I don't think that gives anything away, at least not anything for which the foreshadowing in the book does not prepare you. Recommended to grown-ups and kids alike.

Stravaganza City Of Masks Mary Hoffman Books Reviews

Product labeled used book was exactly as described. Shipped on time. This book was one I liked when I was a kid so I thought I would pick it up and read it again when I get the chance.
I Love it! Can't Stop watching it!
My favorite saga growing up. It was great to introduce it to my niece.
The series 'Stravaganza' is fresh and unique. I really felt for the characters and could visualize the settings. City of Masks is entertaining and exciting. I couldn't put it down. I loved all the characters and the unique settings. I finished the first book wanting more.
This whole series is great... It's not a super complicated plot line, but I find the characters easy to relate to. I love the time transition from modern to historical and the parallels between them. I'm not a big historical buff, but even I found the historical content interesting because it was relevant to the story... not an indulgence of the author. I highly recommend this whole series to anyone who loves time travels or fantasy book.
an awesome young adult book. One of my favorites. I read this 10 years ago, and it has stuck with me -- to me that is the mark of a good book.
I read this book years ago when I was a freshman in high school. Now, I'm a 19 year old history major, and I still keep an eye out for any new installments in the series. It's a wonderful read, and a very intersting story line. I'm a big historical fiction lover, and I adore the fact that this book combines history with fantasy and real life. It's fabulous. Hoffman continues the story in the following books. Yes, the stories are all different, but she still manages to connect them in one way or another. It makes reading them that much more enjoyable. Arianna and Luciano make you want to enter Bellezza as well, combined with the author's description and the walks that her two main characters take. In a way, the reader can find some type of connection with each character. I HIGHLY suggest and recommend that you read this book if you like history and fantasy. There's a good balance of both without the fantasy being too overwhelming and overpowering.
