If you are looking for something humorous, with a touch of sweetness, kindness and love, then this is your winter read. It was one that I found fun to cuddle up, on a cold day (not to mention our oil had run out, so it was deathly cold) and really have a good laugh. It is the kind of read that can warm your heart and really make you enjoy all the subtle things in life.

As we travel through the life and times of the good vet, we come to find out that there is so much more to him than his family gave him credit for and that he wasn’t senile when he set the task for acquiring his fortune. In fact, he was likely the most sane of the lot, as he taught them so much about life and themselves, from beyond the grave.

I liked the light-hearted nature this read took, from soft topics right through to some that are hard for many to approach. Hidden under the doc’s rules and memoirs, this book has a great message, and one portrayed in an excellent way.

I truly enjoyed reading this book and look forward to recommending it to friends and even gifting it to a few, for a good holiday read.

It has been a long time since I read a book that made me laugh as hard as this one did. Slap-stick comedy plays a big role in the plot as does riddles and mystery. The plot jumps back and forth between 1987-88 and 2014 and this is not hard to follow as the plot flows perfectly throughout the book. There are a lot of characters involved in the story making it slightly difficult in the beginning to keep track of who everyone is yet I found everyone falls into place after a couple chapters. This is because the story revolves around a large family with many friends. Whereas, the book has a great sense of humor it also makes you think about your life and the dreams and ideas you have for it. What would you risk to follow through on an idea that keeps nagging at you? You know what I mean that little voice in your head that keeps telling you to take a chance. I would like to tell you a little bit about my favorite part, but there are too many. This is no doubt a great read for anyone. I would hands down, take Doofus squirrel-fishing!

I would like to thank the author for letting me give an honest review… (plus d'informations)
