The Art of Racing in the Rain


The Art of Racing in the Rain was a book that we had considered reading for the book group but it fizzled out. It was in my To Be Read pile and so I delved in last week. I am still undecided whether I liked the book or not. Of course any book with a dog on the cover can't be all bad. Garth Stein did a wonderful job at telling the story from the point of view of a race car driver's dog and companion, Enzo. Unlike Marley and Me where there were happy times followed by a sad ending, this book was one heart wrenching event after another. If you are reading this book as part of a book club there are questions to help with discussion here
What are your thoughts?
