This book touched my heart with its tender story. The octopus was a delightful character who stole the show. I enjoyed his witty and wise personality. I was ready to give this book a high rating, but it lost some of its charm as it went on. It was one of those books where the reader figures out the plot before the characters do. It made me impatient to get to the conclusion.

The mystery unraveled at 70% and the remaining 30% dragged on as the characters tried to catch up with reader’s insight.
