Journal Entry 1 by wingSqueakyChuwing from Rockville, Maryland USA on Monday, January 11, 2016
I selected this book today from the Little Free Library at Teale Learning Center - Audubon Naturalist Society - Woodend Sanctuary at 8940 Jones Mill Road, Chevy Chase, Maryland, USA. Thank you very much!

I read another copy of this book in 2007, and this is what I wrote about it after reading it...

In his early days of marriage, the author adopts a Labrador retriever puppy. This dog, Marley, becomes his constant companion throughout the years he and his wife are raising their family. John Grogan does for Labrador retrievers what Jon Katz did for border collies – which is to bring out what is distinct and special in each respective breed of dog. I found Grogan’s book much more fun to read. In addition to telling what makes Marley so unique, Grogan has a way of telling a story that makes the tale absolutely hilarious. Here is a book which grabs the reader and has him both laughing, crying, and nodding his head in understanding as Marley goes rollicking through life. My only complaint about the book is that I felt it should have ended a few chapters earlier. Then, at the very end of the book, there was a teaser with no resolution! I found that annoying, but it did not take away from my great enjoyment of this book.

Journal Entry 5 by wingResQgeekwing at Alexandria, Virginia USA on Saturday, February 27, 2016
I was handed this at today's BC-in-DC gathering to read. I've heard good things about it, and probably would enjoy it, but I don't know if I'll get around to reading it anytime soon. We'll see...

Journal Entry 6 by wingResQgeekwing at Starbucks - Ballenger Ave. in Alexandria, Virginia USA on Friday, June 17, 2016

Released 7 yrs ago (6/17/2016 UTC) at Starbucks - Ballenger Ave. in Alexandria, Virginia USA

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

While I am sure that I would enjoy this book, I've decided that it is time to ruthlessly cull my TBR mountain range of books that I am unlikely to read in the short term, especially when they are titles that should be easy to find again when I am ready to read them. This book meets those criteria, so I'm releasing it to find someone who might appreciate it now.
