This was such a remarkable book! The characters were so believable, and the reader is pulled into the story from the first page!

Read this for my book club. Everyone loved it, it was a hit.

Loved it! Borrowed from library! I would tell people to read this one!

I loved this book. The plot was so dynamic. The movie was ok, but the book was excellent. It's a quick read and once I started, I couldn't put it down!

I went into this book unsure but was in the mood to read something, I loved this book and the way the author described everything...great writing!

Fantastic read!! Awesome movie as well!!!

This was a very enjoyable book to read. It introduced me to the world of circus life that I knew nothing about, and had a great believable story.

Just happened to run across this book. Previously never heard anything about it. I thought it was excellent.

great story

Here is my disclaimer: DO NOT LET THE NAME SCARE YOU AWAY. I read this book way before Rob Pattionson put his cute little mug on the movie screen to portray the main character. I also have met the author, who is a natural, organic beauty. If you read the book, you know exactly what the title means and it becomes an inside joke - if you will. Jacob is an adorable character and you will fall in love with him as you root him along throughout the entire book. If you are a sappy romantic like I am, you will not be able to keep this book down. I lost exactly 2 nights of sleep and then a few more because I was sad it was over. Then, I obsessively followed the movie production....lol....it is GOOD! Read it!

I love this movie, and Reese and pattonson are my some of my favorites.

I am a huge fan of Robert Pattinson and became aware of this book when the movie was coming out. As I absolutely hate seeing any movie based on a book prior to reading the book I had to go out and get this book to read first. As I delved into the story I could see that the writer has a genuine talent for storytelling and did a lot of research into the era which she has portrayed. I think if you like a good romance mixed in with a specific era of history and read more into the genre of romance with comedy and a bit of macabre humor then you will love this book as much as I did.

Great book...one of the best I have read in years.

I really enjoyed the movie, I wasn't sure how it was going to end and hoped it wouldn't be sad. It was well worth watching.

i thought this movie was going to be a dud but i watched it and i loved it was amazing i think reese did awesome and the man in it was amazing it is thumbs up
