bandherbooks 's review for:

Circling the Sun by Paula McLain
3.0

A historical fiction tale about Beryl Markham who grew up in Africa, trained and raced horses, and flew airplanes. She was a woman who bucked society's norms, but this account left me a little cold.

I will say it did inspire me to read her own memoir, West With the Night. I hope Hemingway glowing review holds true upon reading.
