Water for elephants by sara gruen

(5/5) stars 

the book's summary




so my information about circus are very limited as the last time i actually went was when i was 5 years old and i don't remember a thing. so all my information where based on movies (if u count dumbo as a source of info.)...and water for elephants changed that completely.


to be honest at first the book wasn't the  grab-it-every-chance-i-get kind of book because all i said was "i won't like this book" until i actually believed it but after a while i felt my self liking the book and it's like i'm actually living with them. you know those movies that when they are scared you're scared ,when they're screaming you scream inside (or in my case outside) ? will that what water for elephants did. 


all i thought about when i thought about the circus is that it's such an easy job u get money for doing something you love which isn't even tiring i didn't know the hardship that they face. and that apparently no job is easy in this world 


i really loved this book all the characters are so real and it's actually my second book with a boy as the protagonist and i loved this one more. i like seeing the view point of a boy (even if the author is actually a girl)


i really recommend this book to anyone i was actually looking and trying to vary the genres that i read a bit and water for elephants didn't disappoint...so yeah go pick it up and don't go the easy way and watch the movie every bookaholic knows that the movie is never as good as the book......i actually became interested in elephants too


and here's magic by cold play because it always reminds me of the book !
