Review # 2 was written on 2009-11-08 00:00:00 �mer Veysel �ali�kan This is the first book that has ever, and I emphasize EVER, made me laugh so hard and cry so much. All in one book! Marley & Me is the predictable and somewhat cliche story about a dog and his owner. If you pick up this book expecting a unique story, put it down and look for something else. If you pick up this book expecting to learn about how to train your dog, put it down and look for something else. If you pick up this book wanting to read a touching, but very entertaining story about being a dog owner, you've come to the right place. This book basically chronicles the Marley's life with the Grogan's from puppyhood to his last few breaths. Most of the negative reviews I've read about this book criticized the author's poor training methods. No one's perfect. And just like parents, dog owners can make mistakes too. Additionally, you can't celebrate life without understanding death, so to completely discredit this book because of Marley's inevitable end is to ignore one's own mortality. Overall this is a great book. You might not learn anything new (or for that matter, correct) about dog training, but you'll at least learn to appreciate the unconditional love and affection a canine companion can bring to one's life. |
