“This book was wonderful. Once I picked it up, I had a hard time putting it down. The circus history was very interesting and you felt strongly for her characters. This was the first time I'd read Sara Gruen, but I can guarantee it won't be the last.”

“This was the first book I read of Augusten Burroughs and when I had finished, I was in love. He is a wonderful storyteller. This book is both hilarious and horrifying. I'm not sure how much of it was embellished for dramatic effect. I hope, for his sake, it was a lot.”

“A good book for a rainy day read, but nothing spectacular. I suppose the thing that makes it most interesting is the silly controversies surrounding it. Just an average mystery.”

“A total rip off of Tolkien. I couldn't even finish this one let alone read more in the series.”

“This is one of my all-time favorite books. Beautiful, heartbreaking, captivating, poignant. I read this book on a whim and was nearly unable to put it down. I'm sure I'll reread this one many more times throughout my life.”
