Water for Elephants

The book i read was called "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruen, it was 421 pages. I chose this book because I saw previews for the movie and wanted to read the book.

This book is about a guy named Jacob who was majoring as a vet but then both his parents died and he had nothing left. Then he ended up getting a job working at the circus being put in charge of caring for the circus managerie. In this book you see how a long time ago depending on where you stand working at the circus is how your treated. He meets an elephant named Rosie which he finds unable to train until her. And he meets Marlena whos married to August whos violence ways give everyone a reason to be cautious around him. And he ends up falling in love with Marlena.

One thing i didnt like about this book is how it switched points of view and sometimes it was confusing.
