Water For Elephants (Part 2)

I haven't had time to read very much lately, but I've reached the point where the main character has run away from his home town and landed on a circus train. He's just getting started with his work. The book is now officially late back to the Elgin Library, so I'll need to re-new it. That really peeves me: I owe them $5 from a book I had too long this summer. I gave it back, I don't understand why they're still charging me. I mean, not that many people even use the library anymore... I don't think I should be reprimanded for keeping a book too long. Whatever.
