What I liked were the parts about Bailey becoming friends with Poppet and Widget and the circus itself. I might've enjoyed this more had it focused on the two of them because they seemed like they could've been interesting characters. So I was frustrated that I never really understood their competition and that the two characters hardly spent any time together in the book. I also could never keep track of whether we were going forward or back in time or how old anyone was.Īlso, the blurb makes the book out to be a story about Celia and Marco, their competition, and their doomed romance. The POV was omniscient, and it jumped around so much in time and place to encompass so many characters that I didn't feel connected to any of them. But when I finally got around to it, I ended up wanting to DNF and had to force myself to keep going. This was one of those books I kept saying I was going to read for years.
