What a delightful book! Simple & heartwarming, it tells the story of Tova, a widow, befriending an octopus at the aquarium where she works. And the story of Cameron, a 30yo lost soul with the maturity of an 18yo & very little going right in his life. We follow them both as their paths happen to cross and each is at a crossroads of their own. 

With a few laughs and a lot of heart, Remarkably Bright Creatures is a very nice little read. 🐙
