Even after watching the movie I still cried. I just live Enzo. He lives his family with his whole being.

I read this book as part of One Book, One Denver.

To be honest, it was rather depressing.

Not only was it depressing, but there may have been just a bit too many driving analogies.

It was a decent book, and I found myself crying at points, but overall it wasn't one I would have picked up on my own to read.

So good!! Definitely a tear-jerker.

I enjoyed this book and it was a very quick read. I will admit I did get a bit bored in the middle but the ending was so sweet.

I thought this was going to be a light/funny book about a dog, even with the fact that he was looking back on his life I could handle. I did not expect it to be a serious drama about a family. If I would have known that before starting it, maybe I would have been better prepared. I did like when the dog actually described his "dog life". I quit the book in the middle because I was so frustrated with the story-but since I can't quit a book picked it back up and finished it.
