Lily and the Octopus by Steven Rowley
3.0

3.5 - Audiobook: welp this book broke my streak of not crying while reading which I held off for 7 years. This was a beautiful book about a dog and her octopus (tumor/cancer). The parts of the book that I liked was the stories about the dog and Ted’s life. I did get lost during the magic realism of it all. But at its core, this book was about love and loss. And we would do anything for those we love.
