 Sad, sweet and wonderful. November 12, 2008
"A Three Dog Life" by Abigail Thomas is a wonderful telling of one woman's struggle to deal with life after her husband's life altering accident. Thomas pulls us into her life and her mind as we venture through all the changes with her. The book is written so conversationally that the reader can't help but feel as if the author is a close friend and one we care strongly about. While there are struggles and sadness in the book, the tone doesn't become heavy or depressing. Thomas manages to keep it upbeat so that we're not bogged down by the events. As she learns to live again, we are right there with her and learn much about our own thoughts and feelings. What would we do if our lives were twisted in a way such as her's was? Would we come through it as strongly as she? These are questions that flicker through the mind and it gives one pause to wonder. This is an all around great book and a quick read. Definitely well worth the time.
Made me feel all warm and fuzzy October 28, 2008
I really enjoyed this one. It was relaxed, easy reading, easily devoured in one sitting. I found myself in tears throughout the book, starting very early on in the story. The realistic and candid way in which the story was told made me want to hug both my significant other and my dog. It made me want to be the kind of person who is brave enough to continue to find joy in life while at the same time being there for her loved one in the most difficult of situations.
I probably will not re-read this one, as all the crying exhausts me emotionally, but I am so glad that I did read it. This is a book that I will not be forgetting anytime soon.
 A Three Dog Life by Abigail Thomas is a delightful book October 12, 2008
This book is a must read especially for anyone who has been or is going through an unexpected life changing event. It is about courage, flexibility, acceptance, and finding the positive aspects of life's difficult situations. It is written in a wonderful style that doesn't leave the reader morose.
A Moveable Feast. September 30, 2008
What a moving and insightful novel. This is the type of book that you savor....re-reading sections, sentences to fully digest the thought. A friend has experience working with traumatic brain injuries and is going to recommend it to her group.
A Three Dog Life August 26, 2008
A beautifully written story of loss and survival. Anyone who loves someone and who also loves dogs will understand and be heartened by this book.
