The Good Boy by Stella Hayward
3.0
Thank you NetGalley, Avon, and Harper for an ARC.
This book is as a cute and relatively light hearted read.
Genie doesn’t believe that her grandmother is really magic until she’s given a wish on her birthday that goes wrong. She accidentally wishes her to dog were a person and wakes up to a strange man in her home.
I’m so glad this book is sent a romance between Genie and her man dog. That would’ve felt odd, instead we get a different type of love story where Genie and Rory help each other through a lot and she realizes her true feelings about her neighbor Miles.
Rory was the shining star of this book. He was so sweet and exactly what I’d expect a human version of a golden retriever to be.
The book did drag at certain parts. It would get a bit heavy handed on the conversations where people tried to uplift Genie and let her know her light has dimmed but she’s still in there.
Overall an enjoyable and fun read.
