Extract

Rosie couldn't do the teams from the beginning, so August remained very aggressive and ready to beat it, but it turned out that Rosie understood the Polish language that was Jakob’s native language. During training, Jakob gets closer to Marlene, and they fall in love with each other, and they want to run away, which makes August very angry about, and he is willing to hold them and force Marlene to perform. But during the performance, Jakob talks with Marlena that they will both run, hide, and find work later, but again their plans are interrupted by August, who remains furious and wants to kill them, but they are incredibly deserted by Rosie!
In my opinion this book is really interesting. I liked the communication between Jacob and all circus family, because they get very close and could give help to each other in every moment. I disliked August, because he was very aggressive and cruel.
