A few weeks ago I received a book in the mail from my nephew in New Jersey, with a note attached, suggesting that Teri and I read it. He said he thought it was a very good read that he thoroughly enjoyed and that he thought we would enjoy it as well. He said it was very well written, and it would bring us through the entire gamut of emotions.

The book is titled “Marley & Me; life and love with the world’s worst dog” and was written by John Grogan. Well, Teri read it first, and there were times when I caught her crying while she was reading the book. So I was feeling ambivalent about reading it myself! But when Teri finished reading the book, she said I should read it too. So I did read it, and they were both right. It is very well written, and it DID tug at my emotions quite a bit! It IS a good read, and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a sentimental book that will draw you in and make you laugh, and make you cry.
