A review by blackcatlouise
The Dark Circle by Linda Grant

4.0

I loved the first half of this book and felt confident it would be my Baileys shortlist favourite then for me it felt quite flat for a few chapters before finally picking up again in "part 2". However I really enjoyed the book overall; I loved the characters, and the " being patient". The limited life of the sanatorium resonated with me as I have a chronic illness and there are a lot of things I can't do! I often don't enjoy postscript chapters in books but I did feel that these extra chapters really added to my enjoyment of the book.
I absolutely recommend reading this book but now I'm not sure which was my favourite Baileys book....
