1 cup sugar
1 c water
1/4 light corn syrup
1/2 tsp. white vinegar
9 c popped pop corn
tiny white marshmellow pieces
black licorice cut up into pieces
red vines cut into little pices
mix together and sit down and enjoy the most creative, stunningly original voice in fiction in years. A magical circus comes to town and sucks the reader in from the get go. I did not want this book to end and cannot wait for the author's next venture. I don't want to give anything away except to say the characters are heartbreaking, original, sensual - and I love all things circus - even if it only appears at night.

Harlan Coben's first novel was recently re-issued. There is no doubt as to why Mr. Coben is a successful writer. The story is full of twists and turns, suspense, there are characters you fall in love with (three main ones - or two depending, but you have to read the book to understand). I could have done with out the basketball descriptions but besides that it is a light summer read. Predictable, but forgiveable - one doesn't expect more. I was a little ahead of the author and things resolved a little too well - but what the hell - fantasy is a good change.
