Marley and Me

My daughter bought it, read it and passed it on to me. I am in the process of reading it now.

My husband bought it for me for Christmas - despite my strong hints that I would prefer to select my own books. Frankly, I found it an amusing story, but feel at best it should have been say a novella or short story in Reader's Digest or even a paper back. Almost $30 was way too much for this book in my opinion. And, I think a better titled might have been "Me, Me, Me, and the Dog". I found the writer to be overly fond of himself. My husband has just finished the book and for once admitted to agreeing with me - usually he will take opposite view just to be difficult. Glad you enjoyed it though.

That book was sent to me last week from the publishing company. I can't say much about it yet as I just started reading it.

I'm good with just the movie section. I like my stories read to me. Kidding.

I heard about that book, but I haven't read it...
