Wonderful wonderful book!! My husband got mad at me because I kept the lamp on late into the night because I COULD NOT PUT THIS BOOK DOWN. I will not pretend that it is a sappy, whimsical story about a pet, but it is heartwarming, tear-jerking at times, and absolutely worth reading. Enzo is a philosopher, car racing enthusiast, and beloved family pet. In his final days, he tells us his reflection on his life and what he has learned. There have been difficult moments over the years in Enzo's family, but he has remained a faithful friend and protector. It is so refreshing to see the world through the eyes of a loving, innocent, and goofy dog. So pull out some tissues, and read this book!

Captivating mystery novel. I especially liked the layout of different points of view told from different times. Even with the variety of speakers and times, it was not difficult to follow the plot line. Great story with a hard-to-guess twist. I highly recommend this book.

This was my favorite book in the Harry Potter series. JK Rowling really starts maturing the characters. Harry learns that things aren't always quite what they seem. This book is full of suspense and gets two thumbs up from me.

This book was disturbing to say the least. I cannot imagine the horror of losing a child. Even still, the flashbacks, supernatural happenings, and detailed descriptions of suffering made it a horrifying book to read. If you're wanting a dark read, this book is for you. If you're expecting a short book on father and son adventure like I was, move along.

This is truly one of the best books I've ever read. Katie loves Jesus so much that she isn't afraid to let Him change her life. Her honesty and enthusiasm for her faith, serving others, and living out the Gospel completely is unmatched. Her story is inspiring.
