*Some spoilers*

Honestly, I expected to like this book. I love reading books that are adapted into films, so I figured I’d get a head start on this one — anything about a circus, I figured, would at least be interesting. I wasn’t disappointed. The protagonist is likeable, which is a must for me, the plot is well developed, and I like the continual transition from present-day Jacob to twenty-three year old Jacob. That said, I really wish the book were longer. I finished it in a single afternoon and I really thought the ending had been sewn up too quickly: So Rosie the elephant conveniently dispenses with August and our couple are left to live happily ever after…eh… I was expecting something more dramatic, more violent: a Jacob/August showdown, if you will. But the book seems to move too fast to accomodate a scene like this. Really, that’s my only complaint, though.
I snuck a peek at the other reviews before buying the book, and I was slightly put off about references to graphic sexual material and animal cruelty. And I have to say, I don’t get it. The animal cruelty is there, sure, but there isn’t much talk about blood and gore — it’s more about how Jacob responds to the cruelty, in my view. It doesn’t make it any less disturbing, but it’s not really horror movie material either. As for the sex stuff, I don’t get what the fuss is about. You can pick up almost any generic romance novel and read stuff that is far more graphic than what is found here. And I think it’s marketed as an adult novel, so no problems there…
In conclusion, it’s a good book. I’ll probably read it again and I think it’s worth the price I paid for it.

I took my new Kindle on vacation with me and I’ve given my old Kindle (first generation) to my husband. I found in the design it takes a little more effort to ‘pushing’ the next page and the back page buttons. I also like the fact that the cover for the battery does not come loose as it did on my old one. I still love it.

I love pedometers; great all around daily number to keep one pushing the activity. I wanted one for my pocket. This fits the bill, but barely. It’s too big. Compared to my other pedometers, it seems accurate, but the thing’s just too clunky. Too bad, going back on Ebay tomorrow.

The friction mount does exactly what it is supposed to do–it holds the GPS steady on the dashboard without slipping or leaving a mark on the windshield.

The Furminator is awesome! Easy to use, easy to clean and my dog sheds way less with regular use.
31 PC ULTIMATE SUPER

I bought this as a Valentines present this year and it is the best gift I have ever given her. She reads books all the time and now she just looks at a list and picks which one she wants and in about a minute she is set to read a new book. The book prices are cheaper than buying the paperback so this is a great purchase and it works very well.
Sigma Zoom Super Wide

This product absolutely works. I have two full sized GSD’s and it has done everything it has claimed it does. The only problem is you should use this outside, or on a plastic mat for easy pickup. While it does remove a TON of hair, it doesnt hold onto it like other brushes do. It instead moves all loose fur to the tail end of your dog. Make sure you use this product in an easy place to dispose of the hair simply because it removes so much.

I’ve used the 305 for years and love it! It’s so great to see your distance and pace at a glance as well as compare your runs on your computer. I just bought this unit for my daughter and she loves it as well. When traveling overseas it does take longer to initalize but once it does it works great.
