          <body><![CDATA[I read this extremely fast. Slightly cheesy, but based on historical fact about circuses, giving it a bit more substance. It is a good book for not thinking--a relaxing read. ]]></body>

          <body><![CDATA[I decided I like this genre of storytelling via history. A very creepy and disturbing true story of a murderer and the world's fair. I knew nothing about this! Weird! It took me a while to trudge through though. There are elements that I found dull and tedious.]]></body>

          <body><![CDATA[Dave Eggers finally wrote another great book. This story is a lyrical, fictionalized memoir of a Sudanese refugee's survival (one of the Lost Boys) and finally his struggle to assimilate in America. This book is consistent and eloquent--a great read. Beautiful! Fascinating! ]]></body>
