The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Mark Haddon
Vintage
, 2004
A unique, entertaining story.
This story, though not actually a mystery, captivated me from the very beginning. Seeing the world through Christopher's eyes is both entertaining and educational. I've never read anything like this before. It's both simple and complex at the same time. I'm suggesting ...
The Art of Racing in the Rain
Garth Stein
Harper
, 2008
great, easy read
Hesitant at first about a book written through the eyes of a dog, I devoured this one in 2 days. It's full of life lessons, a little humor a little suspense and a lot of love.
The Hollow (Sign of Seven Trilogy, Book 2)
Nora Roberts
Jove
, 2008
Intense
This book picked up right where the other left off. I could not wait to find out what would happen on the next page. Really looking forward to the last book in this series. Definately a page turner.

Great book!
This book thus far has been helpful with understanding how to treat my dogs more like a dog rather than babies. It is hard to realize that mabye your dog is not the one who wants the babying, but you need to do it. I have definetely become a better leader for them and ...
Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog
John Grogan
Harper Paperbacks
, 2008
Touching in an ordinary everyday life sort of way...
I loved this book. It made me laugh and cry (sometimes within pages of each other). The twists and turns of the story are John Grogan and his family's everyday twists and turns. That is the beauty of the story. As we live our "ordinary" everyday lives we are ...

Three Rivers Press
, 2007
I really enjoyed this book
I love dogs. I have 3 of them. I am lazy, though, and never walked them because I was tired, I didn't feel like it, I never trained them to walk on the leash without pulling me, etc. I was neglecting my dogs. Then I started to watch Cesar's show. He grilled into ...
Merle's Door: Lessons from a Freethinking Dog
Ted Kerasote
Harcourt
, 2007
Best dog story ever
Merle's Door has to be one of the best, if not the best, dog story I've ever read-and I've read most of them. Merle and Ted have many lessons to teach us regarding our relationships with man's best friend. This book is humorous, informational and touching. I can't ...
The Road (Oprah's Book Club)

Vintage Books

Gutwrenching
A sad , destroyed world of people returning to their animal instincts. This was a chilling , disturbing & sad story. I cried.
Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, No. 14)
Janet Evanovich
St. Martin's Press
, 2008
A good read
I approached this book with trepidation after reading so many negative reviews. I'm happy to report that I laughed out loud many times throughout the book. No, the sexual tension wasn't there in the same way, but other parts of the story more than filled in for a ...
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel
David Wroblewski
Ecco
, 2008
I'll never forget this one.
This is a remarkable novel - remarkable. I held my breath at points and wiped tears from my eyes several times. I hope the fact that it's a "debut novel" doesn't prevent it from being considered for all of the most significant literary prizes.
On Talking Terms With Dogs: Calming Signals
Turid Rugaas
Dogwise Publishing
, 2005
Fantasically great
I cannot believe how much this book helps me communicate with my reactive dog. I have a small library of dog books and by far this little book outshines them all. I also foster dogs and this helps me get acquainted with all the different breeds and the author is ...
The Barbecue! Bible
Steven Raichlen
Workman Publishing Company
, 2008
Great for the Adventurous Cook!
This book was recommended by Epicurious before it was published, so I was excited to see it when it came out. I popped on amazon to buy it, read some reviews (negative) and decided to pass. Several people complained that the recipes were complicated and required lots ...

Quarry Books

The person who said 'buy 3 copies' was right...
This book has been great!! I am on my 2nd copy, as I gave the first one away to a friend who fell in love with it, and am planning on buying a 3rd copy to send to another friend. This book is very easy to follow and a pleasure to page through. The photo's are fun, ...
How to Housebreak Your Dog in 7 Days (Revised)
Shirlee Kalstone
Bantam
, 2004
A Life-Changing Miracle of a Book!
Shirlee Kalstone's book LITERALLY changed my life. I had skimmed over this book at the pet supply store but thought, "Very interesting...but surely I'LL never need it because teaching MY puppy to 'go' outside will be a snap." Two weeks, one wet, yellow floor, and two ...
