This thread is now open!

So...several of the books on this list don't actually seem to BE non-fiction. Can I still read one of those? If not, can anyone suggest a book from this list where the animal doesn't die/is not horribly abused?

Jessica, I listened to Scent of the Missing: Love and Partnership with a Search-and-Rescue Dog. It is about the raising and training of a rescue dog.

Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World and Marley and Me: Life and Love With the World's Worst Dog were two other books I enjoyed.

Thanks Bea, the rescue dog one sounds interesting! I've already been burned by Marley and Me lol.

Excellent suggestion Bea!! I teared up a little in the epilogue, but otherwise excellent suggestion.

Glad you liked it, Jessica.

To second Jessica's question - Can I read a fiction book on this list, or does it need to be a non-fiction book?

As long as the book is on the list (and you didn't put it there ;-)), you can use it.
