3.5/5

I was so happy to get an ARC of this book through BookishFirst, and firstly, thank you for it in exchange for my honest opinion.

The concept of using her dogs as a timeline for a memoir was beyond ingenious and I loved it! Though I did like it, there were a few times where the dogs really couldn't be tied to the time period of her life, still, I really enjoyed hearing about each of the dogs.

One thing that was a little confusing was the diverging from the timeline, it hopped and skipped about before returning and that could be a bit dizzying.

The stories were entertaining and had me chuckling, the love between her and those she writes about is clear and the memoir was a really fun read. I wouldn't hesitate to read her previous memoirs.
