A Girl Made of Air by Nydia Hetherington

Did not finish book. Stopped at 35%.
I really wanted to love this book since I love circus stories. However, I couldn't even get through more than one third of the book. I think the writing style was just not for me, and I felt very jostled around with the way the story was being told. Also, I thought it was very odd that there were lots of statements about how a woman's voice is powerful and men will do anything to silence it when the narrator thought so poorly of the circus dancers just because their outfits were revealing/they dressed like "tarts." She even went as far as calling them idiots. I tried giving this book a chance but ultimately I just don't have any desire to read the rest.
