Stars: 4
Review by: patco81
Writer Paul Gustavson is having a bad year: he's divorced, out of shape and drinking too much, his father has suffered a debilitating stroke, he is locked in classic rivalry with his brother Carl, and his girlfriend is going to Paris with another man. Luckily, his faithful dog Stella serves as confidante and therapist - but Stella is aging and becoming increasingly infirm. Decisions must be made on all fronts, requiring 30-something Paul to catapult into adulthood. This book has humor (if you're not a fan of puns, be warned), pathos and engaging characters. But the real star, as her name indicates, is Stella.
