I‘m enjoying this. Cozy English mystery, where the dog‘s thoughts are part of the narration. He‘s a failed police dog named Rex Harrison who is not terribly obedient 😂 His owner is a retired police detective who gets involved in solving crimes. I have a Shepherd mix named Carter whose thought process reminds me a lot of Rex. Smart, with a mind of his own. 😉 He enjoys taking up 2/3 of our couch. Shown with Lilly, our beagle/pit mix.

This is a cute cosy murder mystery with a retired detective and his ex police dog as the main characters

Populated with dull and hateful characters, I can‘t recommend this story of a middle class man who falls for his incarcerated lover‘s German Shepherd. The snobbery of the main character and the abuse and neglect of the blameless dog are all hard to take. This is not funny nor is it a love story as far as I‘m concerned.

I started a massive reorganization of my trade paperback books and this one‘s strange size made it fit uncomfortably on the shelf so I decided to read it instead of putting it back. Gatsby thinks she‘s better looking than the dog on the cover. 😉

Clwojick I agree with Gatsby! ♥️ 4y

Saturday morning reading ♥️ This series is pretty cute. High interest for the 8yo since my sister adopted a doggy last summer and the whole family fell in love.

Last book club meeting in 2020 for #nyrbclassicsreadingsociety ❣️COVID-19 didn‘t stop us; we moved the meetings to Zoom, and we have more regulars since

Cinfhen Great!!!! 4y
charl08 Yay! I've loved the way so many book events have gone online - and joined an online translated fiction book group too, which I don't think I'd have been able to get to in person. 4y
arubabookwoman Did the group like this one? I really enjoyed it. 4y
sisilia @arubabookwoman Avg 3.6⭐️ Two of us loved it ( including myself), the rest didn‘t like the Frank & Johnny part 4y

4⭐️ I always love books about dogs, especially those that I don‘t end up crying because the dog died. Don‘t worry, no dogs died in this novel. Ackerley once again told a cozy and funny story about dog-human relationship; and of course, about how the dog dominates one‘s life 😆

Cathythoughts The dog definitely dominates 😂... 4y
sisilia @Cathythoughts Always 🤪 The same with his other book 4y
Smarkies I read his other book - My Dog Tulip. Am guessing he based this novel perhaps on his relationship as detailed in that book? 😁 4y

sisilia @Smarkies I think so 😃 They are so cute together 4y
MsMelissa I might read this now that I know the dog doesn‘t die! 4y
sisilia @Book_Fiend_Melissa 😆 Enjoy! It‘s a great December read 4y

Unabridged Kid is obsessed with this book, based on a documentary, about working dogs. He's convinced they're basically Paw Patrol.
