A Dog's Purpose (A Dog's Purpose, #1)

4.5 stars
A Dog's Purpose is the story of a dog with a deep affection for people and his search for his purpose in life. He begins life as a feral dog but is soon reborn and finds himself with an eight-year-old boy named Ethan. This book has the perfect balance of sentiment, humor, and suspense. Once I picked it up, I could not put it down. I love the ideas that everyone comes into each others' lives for a purpose and that the love continues even after death and the hope that we'll be reunited eventually. Be prepared to boohoo, though. Highly recommend.

Thank you very much, Cheri! I couldn't believe how many emotions I felt during this book. I can't wait to see the movie.
Good review. I try to avoid books with and about animals, I get super annoyed with myself for boohooing too much. If I'm not mistaken, I've seen there's a movie around with the same name...
Thanks, Bianca! Few books make me cry, but I always have a soft spot for animals. This one is told from the dog's POV. Yes, the movie is now out on DVD. I'm curious to see how it compares because the previews did look good.
fabulous job there,dear Amanda!the name alone is so catchy,what do you say?should i take a chance......
Thanks, Samra :) I would definitely recommend it. It starts a little slow at first but picks up and doesn't let go. It's such an endearing and memorable tale, especially if you like dogs!
I think i love dogs......LOLso here we go with this one,thank you.
Excellent!!! I hope you enjoy it, Samra <3
Very nice review, Amanda! I can't wait to read this one !!
Thank you, Deanna!! I really think this is a book you'd enjoy!

Thank you, Kelli :) Yes, this book had me in tears and then the movie as well.
Nice review, Amanda. Loved this book!
