i picked this one up from a used book store in Boston for $2 and i could not be more pleased with this surprisingly inspiring, super interesting read! this was a non-fiction that read like a fiction, to me, in the deftness of storytelling by Sy Montgomery - at times i was so engrossed in the experience and connection between her and the octopuses that command each chapter's namesake, that i forgot i was reading about real life! unexpectedly funny in many moments, her ease of narration and cadence made this one fly by in no time, and i found myself in absolute awe of these amazing creatures every time i picked this up. highly informative (with facts that i will actually remember, and by that i mean explained in a way that a non-scientist like me can follow along with), and emotional at times (ok, there were some tears...), i loved every minute of this one.
