Helpful Score: 5

I really have never been "inspired" rave about a book like this one. I hesitated to even get it, but then thought I'd see what all the fuss was about. I'm not into pugs, and thought this would just be another book about a single girl "making it" in NYC. Not at all! I can't really explain how wonderful it is to read about how happy pugs make the girl at the center of this book. She simply can be "healed" by going to Central Park to Pug Hill (is there such a place? there SHOULD be!) and watching the little scrunched bundles of dog running around. I'm about halfway through, but it's such a cool message and unique viewpoint. Not at all your typical binge-drinking and cocaining, working in a PR agency, eating tons of "hobnobs" type of chick-lit. I don't know how it ends, but I already know I'll be sorry to see it go.
