This is the sixth book in the Phryne Fisher series.
Summary:
There have been strange things happening at the circus and some even say it's cursed and to try and figure out what's going on, Phryne Fisher's friends recruit her to go undercover and find out what's happening.
Review:
I always love revisiting Phryne Fisher and her world, and I love her as a character.
In this particular book, I really like the backdrop of the circus and getting to know the people there, but I don't think this is the strongest book in this series when it comes to the mystery aspect. There was a lot going on, it's hard to keep track of it all and I found it hard to get really engaged in the mystery.
I also think if this had been my first encounter with Phryne as a character, I wouldn't really be that interested in her. She spends a lot of the book pretending to be someone else, and it took a lot of the usual passion and spark out of her personality.
I still feel like these books are always so enjoyable, fun and relaxing to read though, and I just love this series because it's minimal effort to read and I can just get lost in it.
