Water for Elephants

I liked the book. It was interesting to read about circus life and the plot was gripping enough. I finished it quite fast. However, I do not think it deserves 4 stars because the prose seemed a little faulty in some parts and because of Marlena's flat character.

Thank you for your honest review Adina. I had issue with the cruelty. But, I also could appreciate it was speaking from the time frame, which made sense. Still, it was uncomfortable to read those sections.
