This is one of the most enjoyable reads I have ever had and with my 4 degress I have read a lot of books. The writing is often poetic and I love the way he gets into the dogs' heads to tell us what the dogs are thinking.

Oooooooohhh, this thread is back. Oooooohhh, I started this thread way back. Ooooooohhhhh, now here I am. It is almost Spring. And you guessed it. I still have not read this book.

But I do talk about it with people a lot. And they all say that I must read it. And I know I must. And I keep promising that I will. I even promised here that I would.

Oooooohhh, now everyone will think that I am a fakey, fraudulent foister of falsehoods. (who makes up words, too.) But really, really, I am not a fake, a fraud, a foister of falsehoods.

But where this book is concerned.... oooooohhhh.....

It is Hamlet.......

Oooohhhhhh, Almondine is Ophelia.

But everybody says this book is a thing of beauty. So now that I think we have emerged from this dreary winter, maybe I will go out into the sun as soon as it is warm enough, and I will read it there.

But I can guaran-dang-tee it. Sunshine or not. I will cry.
