Getting a book for FREE is
always great.
Getting a book from your
favorite author for FREE is even better.
Getting asked personally by
your favorite author to read her brand new book is fantastic.
I feel so honored to once
again be asked to share my thoughts on the latest installment of the ‘Must Love
Dogs’ series.
Opening a Claire Cook book is
like spending an afternoon with a good friend, and her newest book is another
fun, light-hearted and uplifting read. I
was lucky enough to get an early look at the latest installment of the ongoing 'Must Love Dogs' series, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. This is the continuing story of the lovable Sarah
Hurlihy, as she and her boyfriend John decide to buy and renovate Sarah's
beautiful old family home. Sarah is such
a relatable character, and it is easy to enjoy her struggles at work, and her large,
affectionate, but intrusive family, and mostly her kind loving nature. Cook has readers cheering for Sarah’s
triumphs and empathizing with her struggles.
Claire Cook has a unique
ability to present tough issues in a non-threatening way. As Sarah struggles with her desire to get
pregnant, she deals with her fears of never becoming a mom by pouring all of her
mothering on a family of cats living under the front porch. Sarah and John
learn how to set boundaries with Sarah's large and close-knit family, finding
ways to carve out time for themselves, but all of the chaos takes a toll on
their relationship.
I really enjoyed this book, I
laughed out loud at Sarah's quirky personality and her hilarious misadventures.
Must
Love Dogs: Who Let the Cats in? is a purrfect summer beach read.
Disclosure: I received a free
copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review.
