    Why we think it’s a great listen: Some books are meant to be read; others are meant to be heard – Water for Elephants falls into the second group, and is one of the best examples we have of how a powerful performance enhances a great story. Nonagenarian Jacob Jankowski reflects back on his wild and wondrous days with a circus. It's the Depression Era and Jacob, finding himself parentless and penniless, joins the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth.

    Story

    I was raving about this book after the first hour I listened to it, and then it was downhill after that. It became predictable and cliche. The characters, with the exception of the 90 year old Jacob, were two dimensional and pedestrian. After reading all the rave reviews, I was thoroughly disappointed.
