Remarkably Bright Creatures

by Shelby Van Pelt

Read with me!


May's selection is Remarkably Bright Creatures  by Shelby Van Pelt.

Prepare to be charmed by Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus that literally wraps you around his heart. I have mixed feelings about the human characters in this one, but I can tell you it is a beauty when it comes to believing in second chances at a redeemable life.


I'm excited for you to explore the Pacific Northwest, get to know Tova, and feel the wide range of emotion that a grieving mother navigates while she ultimately finds some closure (and a best friend with eight arms).


HAPPY READING!
