Water for Elephants
Is it just me, or was anyone else unimpressed with Water for Elephants?
I was so excited to finally get it from the library, but I had trouble relating to the main characters, except the old man and the nurse. Sure, there were characters I positively hated, but I didn't really like the people I was supposed to like. I did enjoy all the historic circus information, but I have to admit that I skipped over the parts about Rosie -- you know which parts.
What do you think? Was the character development inadequate, or were my hopes too high? Maybe I skipped too many parts?
Some friends have said the movie is much, much better than the book.
