I loved this story!!!! Another BOTM pick that did not disappoint 🙌 So happy to have read this one with my two friends. I was a little hesitant as I wasn’t sure this would be for me. I’m in shock that this was a debut and I didn’t know the author is Canadian. This story takes place during WWII and it’s about Lena and her adventures as she travels with the circus because her dad is an illusionist. It’s a beautiful story as we follow Lena on her journey. She meets friends along the way and we see the struggles she must overcome. It had me on my toes on what would happen next and had me weeping. It gave me all the feels and have been telling everyone to give it a try.  At the end I just wanted to give Lena a big old hug.  I cannot wait to see what is next for this author.
