The Pug List by Alison Hodgson has one of the most interesting blurbs that goes like

“What if a wheezing, sneezing, allegedly house-trained, ticking time bomb of an orphan pug is the key to helping a family feel at home again, after an arsonist set their house—and life—on fire? If you asked me, I would have said it’s a bad idea; we can do better. Unfortunately no one asked me, and The Pug List is my family’s story.”

Doesn’t this just make you want to read it right now?


Another best-seller by the author of Unsaid, Just Life is a riveting novel that explores the complex connection of humans and animals. It is about Veterinarian Samantha Lewis and her team which is dedicated to providing a sanctuary for unwanted, abused, and abandoned dogs in New York City, how at their breaking point comes an unidentified, dangerous virus spreading through their neighborhood and how animals are determined to be the carriers of the virus.
