Book 167: Circus

Yes, I had a bit of a circus theme going last summer. It was a good time.

Circus is a beautiful short story collection by Claire Battershill, whose Canadian just in case you were wondering.

My original Goodreads review reads as the following

Favourite stories: 
A Gentle Luxury
Circus
Two Man Luge: A Love Story 

Crying instances: 0/9

An exploration of love in all it's facets
I don't know if I could say it any better today. All the stories and beautiful, but "A Gentle Luxury," "Circus," and "Two Man Luge: A Love Story" hit me the hardest.

I rate this book 10 out of 10. It was truly a pleasure to read. As there is something in Circus for everyone that is who I would recommend it to. It's a lovely summer read and a great choice for an afternoon at the beach.
