A review by bequibuho
The Flying Circus by Susan Crandall
4.0
This historical fiction takes place in the 1920s. Three strangers come together to escape their past, present, and future. They seek adventures as they explore the beginning of aviation.
I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for an honest review. This novel captured the thrills and risk of the early years of flight. I found myself holding my breath as they described some of the stunts the characters performed.
I enjoyed the characters. There is a love triangle that is formed between our traveling protagonists. I thought Crandall wrote the romance beautifully. I never once felt that the love was forced or rushed. I thought the love developed slowly over time rather than all at once. I felt the deep friendship these three shared.
The book did have an odd start. It immediately jumped into the action and the background was slowly introduced as the book progressed.
Overall, I greatly enjoyed the book. I recommend this book to anyone interested in historical fiction, especially those based in the early 1900s. This book comes out July 7th.
I give this book a B
