Do I have to read the Caraval series to read the Once Upon a Broken Heart series? And do you recommend?

So I read the whole Once Upon A Broken Heart (OUABH) series before I read the first book of the Caraval series. To me it's not necessary to read the Caraval series. I understood OUABH perfectly fine without Caraval. Then when I went back to read the Caraval series I ended up liking the first book (haven't read the rest) although they aren't wrong when they say the OUABH series is better written and just better overall than Caraval

Good to know, thanks a bunch!

i only read the first two books of caraval and i love them so much!! they're so enchanting and whimsical and the premise is truly so unique!! i could connect to some characters and it was such an enticing experience and i was met with multiple plot twist after plot twist. so i do recommend wholeheartedly to!! along with the fact that alot of people end up regretting not picking up caraval before ouabh because reading ouabh first spoils alot of stuff obviously and they miss the fun when reading caraval after!!

hope i could help <33
