Remarkably Bright Creatures

by Shelby Van Pelt

A widowed cleaner at a small-town aquarium strikes up an unlikely friendship with Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus with opinions of his own — and a memory that may hold the key to a decades-old family mystery. Shelby Van Pelt balances heartache and humor with real warmth; funny, tender, and satisfying without a shred of grit.
