Book Review: Dog Tales


Review:  #395
Title:  Dog Tales
Series:  N/A
Author:  Emily Rodda
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  The idea itself is fairly bland; it’s just about the normal life of a group of dogs, from their point of view.  What makes this more interesting that it is, is how the author manages to twist normal happenings and provide plausible explanations on how the dogs view things (such as the dogs persuading their owners to take them for a walk, that the dogs themselves are owners and the humans are pets).  There were a few moments where it feels that the events were random or stupid (no other word for it).  The ending was abrupt; it didn’t feel like a proper closure at all.  It was an interesting read, it felt like you were seeing into the secret life/society of dogs.
Rating:  6/10
