I’m in college so I don’t have the time to keep up with new and up-and-coming books, but I usually have a huge list come summertime. This was the first on that list and I’m so happy it was! It was the perfect way to start off my summer. The story is about an old man in a nursing home reflecting his thoughts and his story. After the death of his parents, he runs away from an ivy league and ends up on a circus train. His story is about his trials at the circus and his relationship with Marlena.

The imagery is bursting and the action is so suspenseful that I found myself reading as fast as I could and even skimming to find out what happened next. The characters are extremely likeable and you can relate to a lot of them. They’re quirky with tangible flaws and the progress of the story is perfect. So why 4 stars? The ending caught me quite off-guard. Everything was believable but because it was so realistic, the conclusion ended up being blunt and left me thinking “would something like this really happen?”. But it really is one of the best books I’ve read all year and believe all the other reviewers; it’s as good as they say it is.

This scale works perfectly. I am a pretty big person, 6-3, 190 lbs and I fit on the scale with room to spare. It measures to the .2 lb and is extremely accurate. Stepping on and off multiple times and weighing things in between it gives me the same weight every time. I drank a bunch of water and got on and it showed me that I was now .2 lb heavier. EatSmart also has great customer service. Scale Works great especially for the price.
