A review by sjj169
The Pilo Family Circus by Will Elliott
4.0
A book about psychotic clowns? I couldn't resist that one!
Jamie is pretty much an everyday guy. He lives with one stoner and grocery stealing friends in an apartment. Works a normal job. Then he starts seeing some clowns running around and one of them drops a bag of weird powder. Jamie takes that bag.
BIG MISTAKE!!
The clowns get angry that Jamie has their bag and start paying him visits. Then they leave him a note.
You have two days to pass your audition. You better pass it, Feller. You're joining the circus. Ain't that the best news you ever got?
Jamie ends up as part of the Pilo Family circus. Where he finds out that the real world is not the only world that exists. Once he puts on his clown make-up he becomes JJ...The nicest people become the meanest clowns.
There is also a clown named Goshy who has some plant loving going on with a fern. Who becomes his fiance.
JJ alienates most of the other performers because JJ is pretty much an asshole. Then JJ decides he doesn't want Jamie around anymore.
Then in the about the author you find out:
Elliot began working on this book at the age of nineteen, when he dropped out of law school and with diagnosed with schizophrenia.
Okay then.......................
