Product Description

Review
'A book with intense appeal . . . tenderly follows its subject from sunrise to sunset, from the ball-of-fluff stage to the heartbreaking farewell.' (New York Times )

'The reason Marley & Me has proved to be a bestseller is that it is not just a funny dog story . . . It's a universal story of family life and a publishing sensation' (The Times )

'Made me laugh so much I pulled a muscle in my solar plexus' (Daily Mail )

'This is a wonderful, moving book that even non-dog-lovers cannot fail to enjoy.' (Mail on Sunday )

Product Description

Now a major motion picture starring Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson – the heart-warming and unforgettable story of a family and the wondrously neurotic dog who taught them what really matters in life.


John and Jenny were young and deeply in love, with a perfect little house and not a care in the world. Then they brought home Marley, a wriggly yellow furball of a puppy and life would never be the same.


‘This is a wonderful, moving book that even non-dog-lovers cannot fail to enjoy’
MAIL ON SUNDAY


‘It would take a heart of stone to resist Marley & Me’
NEW YORK TIMES

5.0 out of 5 stars Charming, beautiful, about life, family and a loopy labrador., 6 Aug 2007
By J. Potter "johniebg" (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Sometimes someone, maybe a friend or colleague that knows you love to read, shoves a book into your hand exclaiming: 'you must read this!'

Which is exactly how I came to be in the possession of a book about one man's life during the entire lifetime of his pet Labrador: 'Marley and Me'.

I have to admit the premise didn't really appeal, especially being allergic to animals and not spending much time with them. But I love being recommended books and plucked it from my crowded bookshelf just a few days ago. I closed the tear stained last page, yesterday afternoon.

There are probably a whole bunch of words I could use to describe how this story affected me but I will restrict it to one sentence. The story is charming, beautiful, about life, family, your place in this world, about what is important, and all because of one loopy Labrador.

Pros: Wonderful, laugh out loud funny throughout, understated and all the more remarkable for it.

Cons: You will need a box of Kleenex close to hand for at least the last forty pages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marley and Me - A great read!, 18 Oct 2007
By Richard Allan (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well, what can I say - I read this book on a plane to the USA and presume most people in the cabin must have thought I was crazy - switching between laughs out loud to tears in my eyes! Anyone that has a dog (whether they are well behaved or not) will see some part of their dog in this story. I can thoroughly recommend it to anyone that has a few hours to spare!

5.0 out of 5 stars Laughed & cried - a cathartic book!, 6 Aug 2007
By J. Rogers "Princess Josephine" (Bracknell, Berkshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who owns a dog - or just wants a book that is funny, sentimental and a darn good read!
I haven't enjoyed a book this much since I left school (many years ago!)
John Grogan writes with an understanding of his reader - he must have visualised people turning each page and nodding - "Yeah, I know how you feel" or "Tell me about it". The description of the fantastic Marley encapsulated the 5 dogs in my family life so far and more than once I questioned why we currently have a dog-less home. Read and enjoy!
