The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration Into the Wonder of Consciousness by Sy Montgomery

2.0

At the beginning, I found this book engaging and fascinating. There were so many surprising facts and interesting stories about octopuses. But even before the midway point, it began to feel extremely repetitive, and by the end I was struggling to finish. I agree with another reviewer who said this could have been an article instead of a book. We only needed to hear so many times how much this lady loves when an octopus sucks on her arms. Seriously, simmer down. Overall, it just didn't flow well and seemed to lack a true point.
