Sliding over some interesting parts much too quickly, this book about a woman finding meaning in the circus and the brothers who changed her life- for better and worse- was otherwise hard to put down. Nuanced and romantic.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Tuppence Middleton - she is very good at creating difference voices for each character but for some reason the audio version made the story less enjoyable to me.
