Fluff.
There is little to stretch the imagination or enrich your vocabulary but the historical background was well researched and was interesting.
The story is set in a travelling circus during the depression. The love story is simply an upgraded Barbara Cartland. It has been made into a movie ... and while I didn’t think much of the book, I wouldn’t mind seeing the movie as I am sure it would make a great period piece.
Not a keeper but it was a quick read.
