2012 book 359

Hannah Barnaby's Wonder Show
A book about a girl who runs away from a home for wayward girls to work at a traveling circus in the 1930s should have really floated my boat, but this one didn't. The plot was really thin, for one thing, and the constantly changing perspectives (from 3rd person omniscient to various 1st person chapters) kind of annoyed me. And there were not nearly enough details about the 1930s traveling circus! I just was not feeling this book at all. B/B-.
