Marley and Me: Life And Love With the World's Worst Dog Review

Marley and Me: Life and love with the world's worst dog
by
John Grogan

Marley and Me is a book that has been around for a few years and I just have never got around to reading.  When it was given to me by a friend who said it was a quick and easy read, I decided to dive in. As a proud owner of a loving, howling Beagle and rambunctious Puggle, I was excited to read the misadventures of another dog owner and his beloved friend.

John Grogan recalls many years with his great friend Marley, a yellow lab who is the most adorable, quirky  dog ever!  Petrified of thunderstorms, Marley will stop at nothing to dig, chew, claw his way into the house.  Marley also likes to take his owners on walks.  Over the years, Marley was the source of many messes and the receiver of a lot of love.

Marley and Me had me laughing and was definitely a pick-me-up type of book.  I found myself in Grogan's shoes while he was retelling many of Marley's wonderful stories.  As a dog owner and lover, I was totally engrossed in this book and found it to be an enlightening, heartwarming, quick read.  Even if you don't own a dog or particularly love them, I think you will still enjoy Marley and Me.
