Started off interesting but felt repetitive in the second half. I read that this book originally started as an article by the author, and I think I might have enjoyed a shorter version of her experiences with octopuses more than a full book. Regardless, octopuses are amazing!

I love how emotional Sy Montgomery's books are! She's an excellent audiobook narrator, I could even hear her turning the pages a few times (which might not be the best technique but I thought was so sweet). This reminded me of some of my favorite parts of "Remarkably Bright Creatures" and I think it's the perfect book for people who want more Marcellus.

If I could, I'd give this book all the stars.
I can't remember the last time I read a book that I loved this much, that I want to share with everyone I know, that I read out parts of and share facts from whenever I can.
I loved learning about the octopus: when I started this book, it was because I thought they were cool and wanted to know more. Now I finish the book with a deeper knowledge, appreciation, and love for octopuses.
