This is a linear story of one event happening after another. There’s very little character development and the relationships are all superficial. There’s tragedy and no real levity. So I find myself wondering why I liked this book, and I realized it’s because it's a plausible book. This could happen anywhere. Please be responsible pet owners and get your pets up to date on all their shots and whatnots!
