the one where dogs talk.

Another book from Christmas.  Note yellow lab, front and center. 

I was disappointed in The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein.  I know this is a popular book club pick and yet I just couldn't get into the voice of Enzo as the narrator.  An interesting idea.  I guess I just don't believe that dogs are that philosophical.  I also wasn't having the metaphors about life being like a racetrack.  Not my hobby.

Others might like this book.  The plot line is extremely sad.

And if you like dogs, you might be touched.  I just really wasn't.  A quick read.
