Well, I sat in bed thinking oh, I'll just read a few chapters before I sleep but I read the whole book! I couldn't put it down, it was so rich of description of life in a circus and I thoroughly enjoyed it.Jacob Jankowski is ninety or ninety-three or he's not particularly sure how old he is now. A circus has come to town and everybody is excited. For him though, it transported him back 70 years ago when he first joined the circus and met the love of his life.I appreciate books with endings that surprises me and this one definitely did. I liked that it kept me guessing til the last paragraph.
