Are you looking for a story that leaves you with a good feeling? You need Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. This book has had a lot of positive buzz and I thought the beach was the perfect place to read it. This story is about Tova, a recent widow, who mourns the loss of her son and the future he’ll never have. There’s Cameron - a young man who started life at a disadvantage with a missing father and an addicted mother and can’t seem to get outof his own way. Only Marcellus (full name - Marcellus McSquiddles) a Giant Pacific Octopus 🐙 knows the connection between them and is determined to show them before his time is up. This book is about grief and family in whatever form it takes. The ending is wonderful as well as the journey to get there. (You’ll yell at Cameron a couple of times) Thanks to Ms. Van Pelt for having a Brad character that’s a good guy. (3 books in a row with a Brad 😮) Read this book. Not a lot of books make you feel this warm and fuzzy 🥰 You were a good man, Marcellus 🐙 #remarkablybrightcreatures #shelbyvanpelt #contemporaryfiction #beachreads #surfsidebeach #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #readinglife #bookwormlife #sodacityreads #bookworm #suspensebook #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #homelibrary #thrillerbooks #crimefiction #thriller #characterdrivenbooks #mysterythriller #bookrecs (at Surfside Beach, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChR9Ma9rg67/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
