Snag Circus Freak (Escape From Reality #8) Conceived By Erin Lee Distributed As Interactive EBook
DID THIS HAVE TO END SO SOON I wanted to spend more time with Cat, dang it!
Clearly, I really enjoyed this story, Erin Lee has a very special talent for coming up with stories that are skyhigh on the 'freak meter' and just as high on the 'I can't put this book down meter.
' I liked the colorful cast of characters, AKA the Circus Freaks! Bearded Lady is someone I DEF want to know more about, Then there's the lovers: Cat amp Moe, They were too darn cute together in all of their freakishness! I'm still shocked about what she did, but I won't go into detail because man, oh man, is it a spoiler.
Looking forward to reading about the other circus members in Madame's circus! I would probably advise people to read this book before Smoe as it did kind of work in hand and hand with it and there were a lot of crossovers.
Lately, I have been reading Erin Lee's carnival series and after reading Smoe figured I would go to Circus Freak before reading Martha's story, Those who have read Smoe will remember Cat's retelling of killing not only Rusty but also doing Madame's bidding and getting rid of Andre, Being short seems to be a burden for Cat, and she seems only to be able to get out her anger by killing, The other thing I loved about this book was the ending where Erin Lee tied in both her Circus Freaks series and the Escape from Reality series with the last Circus stop being in Escape, Colorado.
One reason I love reading about books like this is that in New Zealand, we don't get circuses or carnivals as such here and I have to live via stories like Erin Lee's Circus Freaks.
If you loved stories about the people in the Carnivals and been enjoying the Escape from Reality series, then Circus Freak by Erin Lee is the read for you.
So what are you waiting for, Step right into Circus Freak and get reading Step into the madness
My name is Samantha, In theory, or Hebrew or even Aramaic it means “God heard” or “Listener, ” Epic, really, considering Ive never believed in God and that Id rather poke my ear drums out with dull spoons than listen to the daily yammering around this place.
Ive never been a listener, Truth is, I take after my mother, whod also rather be on stage, I guess that comes natural when you grow up as a side show act in a freakyassed carnival, But Im getting ahead of myself,
People call me Cat, and, yes, with a C, not a K, Cat as in feline. Of course, I set myself up for that withcat tattoos and the three Sphynx princesses who live with me in my trailer the same rusted thing I travel in as we move from town to town with the carnival no one can seem to get enough of.
Their names are Prune, Pixie and Penelope because I have a thing for Ps, Truthfully, they get me through long and smelly days of people gawking atfeetsixinch tall freaky me, Secretly, I like it that people stare at them too, It takes the attention off my vertical challenges and secretkeeping black eyes,
Its not that I dont enjoy being the center of attention from time to time, I mean, I do. I just dont like it for the wrong reasons like my missing hand from the idiot who thought she was cute on the Ferris wheel when I was two.
I sort of have a lot to hide, Wed best start with the things I can tell you about the same things you probably paid to see, I have two bellybutton piercings one on the top and one on the bottom, Sometimes, I run string through the hoops and tie them together when Im bored, The feline princesses like to bat at them and I enjoy the pain of it,
I travel around the travelling circus on a minibike, Apparently, its quite a sight to see, If anyone bothered to ask me about dreams of mine, Id say Id wish to grow tall to buy a Harley and get the hell out of here.
But that isnt going to happen and Im a realist, Still, I like being able to ride the bike around, It saves me from being tripped over or stepped on by giant cottoncandy grubbing monsters who refuse to look down because Godforbid theres a freak circus in town.
Either way I can promise you one thing: Everything is about to change, I refuse to spend even one more day as an ordinary circus freak
I loved the way this book takes you into the life of Cat, while living in a freak show Circus.
The characters are brilliant and so detailed, my imagination went wild, Oh, that ending I never seen that coming, . crazy freaks!! I don't know if I want to run away with circus or run from it lol, Cats story of being in the Circus and a freak was captivating, confronting and very gory, Her love story with Moe ends not quite how other love stories do, It was such a twisted and very disturbing but beautiful ending all at once, You a learn a little about all the inhabitants of this circus including the woman who runs it, I don't want to give any of the story away as you need to enjoy the journey blind so to speak, It makes it so much more fun that way trust me on that, Cat has some scary secrets but alot of the ppl who inhabit this particular circus do, Obviously this story is Cat's story and she has one hell of a story, The ending wraps up nicely but leaves you wanting to know more about the inhabitants so there should and will be so many more stories to come and so much more to find out can not wait to see what else happens in this
circus.
This is a must read, If your after something different filled with twists and human emotion and gore then give this a one click Where do I start, as always Erin Lee has wrote another epic book.
In this one the circus has come to town and boy does it bring some juicy tells with it, Samantha the'" tattoo women that goes by Cat is the main character of this story along with her love Moe, Now, I wont go into the relationship between Cat and Moe because it would ruin the story for you but it's a strange and unique relationship, In this book you will find out about circus life for Cat, which is the only life she has ever known, You'll have mystery with twists and turns that make you wonder how did that happen, There is romance, sex and even death, I can say that Circus Freaks is a fantastic book and well worth reading, The circus is definitely in town!
Every now and then, there is a cover that grabs your attention like no other, well this one is mine.
Those eyes, that face, the title, . . pure perfection.
This beauty gives us insight of the possible innerworkings of the circus, no longer am I afraid of "killer clowns", Cat and Moe, the main characters, love melted my heart, This intriguing, sorrowful but yet joyful story left me wanting more, didn't want this one to end,
