Marley & Me

Just like the book cover said, you will laugh, cry and pretty much pee in your pants when you read this story. It was really tempting not to laugh at every singe funny story! There were hundreds of little anecdotals that I througly enjoyed due to the fact that I don't own a dog! Marley was rambunctous, troublesome and really did win my heart as a lot of fellow readers had warned.
The anecdotals start even before Marley came into the picture, the focus was on a young newlywed couple who were having trouble keeping even a plant alive. Then they decide to pick up a little Labrador without even reasearching the crazy animal first.  Marley comes into thier lives, named after the great singer, and turns the house upside down! Baby after Baby arrives and the house becomes a home, complete with dog drool and fuzz. 
As every dog owner knows, I didn't, there are hardships to be had and occasions when all you can do is throw your hands up and laugh. And Laugh! What else can you do when ... well I shouldn't say anything, I'll spoil everything!
However, if you do get a dog like Marley, make sure that you do a little research first!
Happy Reading!
