Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine
The Circus Spektakulär is proud to present Jack McCabe: Fire-breather, knife-thrower, risk-taker.I love L.H Cosway and that's why I chose here book for this week, what's yours?
My house burned down when I was just a boy, robbing me of both my parents.
Now I breathe fire, eat the poison that almost killed me.
Crowds come to see me night after night. Men for the spectacle, women for the thrill. I’m an oddity to be stared at and desired. With each flame I spit, I risk my life.
I wear scars on my body that will never go away, but the scars inside my head are far more difficult to overlook.
My brother doesn’t know me, and if I have it my way he never will.
Life was going exactly the way I’d planned until Lille came along. She wanted to run away with the circus, have an adventure, but this world was never meant for her.
I try to keep her safe, because she doesn’t know the dangers that are out here on the road. She doesn’t know the monsters that lurk behind the bright lights of the ring. In truth, I could be considered one of them.
We were fashioned from different cloths, never intended to mix. So I watch her. I try not to touch, even when her eyes invite me.
Join us in the Spiegeltent and let us give you a show. Allow my Lille to draw a picture for you in paint and sweat and skin.
The truest love is always the hardest to let in.
That's a new to me one! Doesn't sound like my kind of read but I do hope you love it!

I see German words in English text and it makes me twitchy. I've tried, really, but most of the time the words are used SO wrong they ruin the whole read for me, even if the story is interesting. I really don't know if I should give this a shot, although it does sound appealing...
