Oh, you are so spot on with your description of magical realism! I think that was my trouble with The Night Circus- she never explained WHY things worked or why certain things had to happen, she just said it and It Was So. As a regular fantasy reader, this seemed like a huge plot hole to me.

I really enjoyed this discussion, but I don't think I'll read this book :-)
