Julie and Dicky Otterman arrive at Grundy's fair with an extraordinary new act: The Wall of Death. The seemingly happy couple are the talk of the town, but it's not all that it seems. Dicky has a dark and violent nature and Julie often finds herself at the ends of her fists. Jenny is settling in fine to life at the fair after finding her birth parents after her adoptive mother had passed away. New member Tom has caught Jenny's eye. Dicky has been teaching Julie to be the first woman to ride The Wall of Death, but will everything go to plan.
I'm a big fan of Lynda Page and in this second book in the Grundy family saga things don't always go to plan. I like the way she solves the problems that happen within a fair with what seems like minimum effort, and there are several different events take place in this book. I also like the fact that the events from the last book continue in this book. This is a well written book with lots of twists. I do recommend this book which can be read as a standalone but do yourself a favour and read All The Fun Of The Fair before you read this book. You won't be sorry.
I would like to thank NetGalley, Canelo and the author Lynda Page for my ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I really enjoyed this book and it was a nice easy read. The story is exceptionally well written and shows about the fair community and how much of a community they are especially when the chips are down.
What a lovely book and what an interesting setting.
I discovered this is the second instalment in a sage and I will surely look for the previous instalment as I really like this one.
The book is heartwarming, moving, entertaining and enjoyable.
You cannot help rooting for Julie and the other characters .
I look forward to reading the next instalment.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to Canelo and Netgalley for this ARC
Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher. I have read quite a few books by this author and this one did not disappoint. I shall be looking out for the first book in the Grundy series.
This is book two in a series about Grundy’s Fair. I enjoyed book one but it left unanswered questions about the feuding brothers Solly and Sonny. This book is great it answers lots from book one but it also leaves me wanting a book three. I now want to know if Tom is going to stick around and of course I want to know his secret. Will Suzie ever be found so that Ren and Donny can have their happy ever after wedding. I also enjoy the everyday ups and downs of fairground life. This is a highly enjoyable series that I definitely recommend
What an interesting setting for what is essentially a family saga- when one expands the definition to family to all of those who work together in a traveling fair. This was new territory me as I'd not read the previous book, or any of Page's work for that matter, and I suspect I missed a bit but no matter. There's a fairly large cast of characters but this focuses on Julie and Dickie. He's an abusive spouse and the impact goes beyond what he does to his wife. There's ups and downs and drama among the others. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. A good read.
