Book Reviews of Rescuing Sprite: A Dog Lover's Story of Joy and Anguish
Book Review: The name dropping should have been left out
Summary: 2 Stars
Although the book does a nice job promoting rescue dogs, it also does a nice job promoting the author's republican friends! I thought all his name dropping was unnecessary and distracting. Book Review: I Laughed and Cried
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful book as soon as I started reading it I could not put it down. I laughed and cried and it touched my heart. Book Review: Must be a Dog Lover to read & Understand
Summary: 3 Stars
If you do not LOVE dogs - don't waste your time reading this book b/c you will not UNDERSTAND. It was okay - but it kind of dragged on - it was easy to read but not necessarily COMPELLING. I mean, you kind of KNOW what is going to happen just by reading the cover. We all have DOG/animal stories - the only difference is.... this guy WROTE about it. His experience is in black & white. I'm sure it made him feel better sharing his story & it is GOOD he is donating profits to an animal shelter. "DOG PEOPLE" will most likely enjoy reading this despite it being sad.Book Review: Cry If You MUST
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a sucker for a good dog story and this one is among the best. Mark Levin did an exceptional job of explaining the link between humans and their canine companions, about unconditional love and how the loss of that love leaves a hole in your heart forever.
For all the dog lovers in the world, reading this story about "SRPITE" will make you think of every dog you've ever owned and have you grieving all over again for their loss in your lives!
I wept through 118 pages of this book so it's not for the faint of heart. Then again, as I said, I'm just a sucker for a good dog story.
Book Review: Disappointing
Summary: 1 Stars
Each time I hear of a new book involving dogs and our bond of love with them I am eager to rush to read it. Of the significant number of my previous reads I have to say this was the most uninspiring and worst of any. The author's writing style is juevenile and displays a lack of creative and moving vocabulary. He does not weave a good tale. The content of the story itself is mundane, nothing particularly insightful in this book. I found the author to be self surving as well. There are some lovely stories of love and loss of pets available. This is not one of them. Sure we dog lovers can be easily moved to tears at a sad story of losing one of dear pets, but that alone does not a good read make.
