Okay so I finished this book abnormally fast due to a combination of sleeplessness and the intense interest in the connection between bird and human. I am ashamed to admit that I emotionally impulse bought a green cheek conure back in December and boy oh boy, do I wish I would have been a responsible pet owner about it and done research prior to this purchase. But with striking similarities to 'Marley & Me', I have whole wholeheartedly fallen in love with my feathered friend. And this book just makes me want to run home from wherever I am to squeeze the bejeezus out of him. The information, the story, the heartwarming detail... Pepperberg does an absolutely splendid job telling her and Alex's love story. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK FOR ANY BIRD OWNER.
