A Dog's Journey by W. Bruce Cameron

4.0

Yet another schmaltzy dog book, but I enjoyed A Dog's Purpose so much that I had to read the sequel. Yes, this book was not QUITE as good as A Dog's Purpose, but it was still excellent and it made me cry. This time Buddy, the lab in the last book, is reincarnated into Molly/Max/Toby, whose primary purpose is to take care of a troubled girl, CJ, who is the step granddaughter of Ethan, the boy from the last book. It is a sequel, but I don't think you would have had to read A Dog's Purpose to appreciate this book. CJ is a good girl with a lousy mother who hates dogs, and must go through many trials and tribulations. Of course Molly/Max/Toby does his/her best to protect and take care of CJ, even when he is reincarnated as a Chihuahua/Yorkie mix who must constantly prove himself. A great, quick read.
