Horsecorset Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 This book about a dog's adventures to get home is a heart-warmer and crusher at the same time. It's one of the best studies of relationships I have ever read. Has anyone read this? What are your thoughts on the brutally sad ending?

Fluffyblue Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I know this is an old post, but I cried my eyes out when I read this book. I also laughed a lot too. It's such an emotional little book, and so easy to pick up and read. I agree, it's a heart-warmer and crusher at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruth Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Uh-oh. Sad dog books are a no-no for me - I always end up sobbing my heart out. I did recently read Gold, by the same author, and really enjoyed that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffyblue Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 How about sad dog films then - I absolutely roared my eyes out watching Disney's "Eight Below". Even my husband said he had a lump in his throat at the end...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueberry_pie Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 After I saw Eight below I had this lump for days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankie Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I'm currently reading Gold by Dan Rhodes and I'm absolutely loving it. So I searched his name on the forum and found this thread, and I know I just have to get this book to read soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
