Summary: MEOW - A Cat Lover Who Loved Marley & Me
Comment: First let me say that I am a cat lover, but I fell in love with that bad dog Marley: a beautiful misbehaved yellow lab. An adorable creature who was extremely playful, destructive, and pretty neurotic. He was even kicked out of obedience school. Despite Marley's short comings, he was lovable,loyal, and compassionate. Marley was there for his human family through several moves and through good times and bad. He became more than a pet; he was a family member, companion and friend. This book was a beautiful tribute to a beloved pet.
I am not a dog-owner, but I am an animal lover, and this book brought tears to my eyes. It also made my remember why I prefer cats over dogs(a lot less work and just as many rewards). I recommend this book to anyone who loves animals.

Summary: I laughed & I cried
Comment: I seriously think I hard core belly laughed and had tears in my eyes on nearly every page. This book is a story anyone who has raised a puppy can relate so well to, and ultimately the aging and loss of your best friend. Grogan did such a beautiful job with this book, I recommend it to everyone!

Summary: For Anyone Who Loves Dogs
Comment: This is a very touching story about how a dog can absolutely steal your heart. At times hilarious, at others very sad, this is the story about how Marley, a Yellow Lab, came into the authors life and completely turned it into chaos. Any one who has ever loved a dog can relate to how Marley becomes more than just a pet to the Grogans, he becomes a child and a protector. Along the way, he destroys several rooms and pieces of furniture. This book will absolutely make you laugh and cry. Anyone who needs a good laugh will especially love the chapter about Marley's obedience training. I could not stop laughing at the instructor's comeuppance! It is a fast read and will make you wish that it was longer. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Oh, those 1 star-reviewing crackpots
Comment: John Grogan is a wonderful writer. This book is honest, funny, poignant and touching. His story is peeled to the truth, and about real life. Not everything goes smoothly, and just because it didn't with Marley, there's no reason to assume Grogan and his wife loved their dog any less.
It is no surprise, though, that every crackpot who thinks he/she knows better, would come out here, scream like banshees, and insult Grogan. Crackpots galore. Bone-a-fide, inbred doggie-dooers.
