Days of Wonder by Keith Stuart

3.0

This story follows a father and daughter duo as they deal with life changing events through their love of art. Hannah is a teenage girl afflicted by a heart problem, which is an imminent risk to her life. Her father Tom, tries to put on whimsical stories and plays for her to help distract her and make her feel better. When the council threatens the closure of the theatre that Tom runs, it's Hannah that does everything she can to help her father.

The way the beginning of the story is written felt a bit immature and unimportant, but I persevered and was rewarded. Halfway through the novel all the different plotlines and ideas had joined to create an engaging story about life, loss, death and theatre.
