Thoughts on...Tails of Love anthology

This book has been on my wishlist in Trade paperback format for quite some time so I was very pleased to see it at my local Target in MMP!

The stories were well worth the wait. Ten stories by new-to-me authors and favorites of animals being instrumental in bringing human love into their owners lives. I cried through several and laughed out loud at others. And finished the book wishing for "just one more".

There is a little bit of everything in here. A ghost in Scotland, a jealous boyfriend, a shy man and his equally shy neighbor, long time friends, new neighbors. A scarred black lab, a hairless Crested, a pygmy goat (named Houdini), a capuchin monkey, and others. No horses ;) but lots of dogs and cats doing what they do best. Love us.

I'll be re-reading this one. Grade B

Product Description:
From seeing-eye dogs to cats who sit in your lap, animals are there for us in more way than we can count. Helping us get through the day with a wag of the tail and a tilt of the head, they let us know that someone is on our side-no matter what. They also have an uncanny ability to break down barriers between people, bringing families and loved ones closer, and giving strangers an excuse to strike up conversation. In Tails of Love, each writer draws from her own unique perspective on our loyal friends-exploring the many mysterious ways they bring love into our lives.

Thank you!

I have no idea why the captcha thing is showing up. I've got the setting marked "no" that I don't want it. Grrrrrr! But, I believe that if you skip entering anything it will post.
