Format:Mass Market Paperback
After reading "Lobster Boy," the story of the murder of sideshow attraction Grady Stiles, I now understand why people can't turn away from a nasty auto accident: morbid fascination compels them to stare. The same is true for this book. I always felt a little strange and dirty after visiting a circus sideshow and that same feeling returned while reading this book. Rosen reveals a side to life that few people understand or have experienced. It's different and who's to say it's worse than what we know? Regardless, all the details are here for us to gawk at, like circus attraction. Although it suffers from weak writing, the story is gripping and you just can't turn away until it's over. Entertaining in a sleazy way.

Lobster Boy is a great story. Loads of conspiracy and action. The writing tends to become a bit dry in areas but if you can get through the minor writing flaws, it is a tremendously rewarding book.

The story of Grady Stiles is very interesting. However, the writting was not strong at all.
