This book was not one of my favorites. I didn't like how the whole book was written in third person. I feel like it would have been more meaningful if it were written as the main character's point of view instead of narrated by a unidentified person.

I understood the relationship between Rocky and Cooper but there were some bonding moments that were just too weird for me to buy into. I knew from the very beginning that I would not love this book. I think the death of Rocky's husband was important to the novel. The desciption of his penis within the first ten pages, was not needed at all, along with other sexual encounters from the couple's marriage. It was a little "too much info" and wasn't needed in the story line.

It wasn't my kind of book, but I can see how/why others might like it. I would recommend it to anyone who has ever loved a dog like they were part of a family.
