Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt

4.0

My favorite thing about this book is the love shown to animals. For the author to pull off something as ambitious as narration (done well!) from the point of view of an octopus, I applaud her. Beyond that, I didn’t find the writing to be especially prosaic and I found the plot to be simply too far-fetched. This book kept me company during a difficult 24-hour period and I am thankful for it. I am interested in checking out future works by this author after this impressive debut.
