Dog Person

“Heartwarming and life-affirming . . . an utterly delightful novel of second chances, bookstores, and that inexplicable connection between people and their pets. Harold is the fluffy, wise, and completely charming protagonist we all need right now, who will stay with readers long, long after the final page (and tissue).”—Kristy Woodson Harvey, New York Times bestselling author of Beach House Rules (and her dog, Salt, too!)

“Tender, heartwarming and true, Dog Person captures the devoted, unconditional love of a dog for their human and a human for their dog, and all the ways that love can both break us apart and put us back together.”—Allison Winn Scotch, New York Times bestselling author of The Rewind

“Not since A Dog’s Purpose have I been so besotted by a novel’s canine. Just like a good dog, Harold and this beautiful book will break your heart open and mend it all at once.”—Colleen Oakley, USA Today bestselling author of Jane and Dan at the End of the World

“Dog Person by Camille Pagán broke me in the best possible way. It’s a story that understands that a happy ending can hold sadness, too, and that moving on isn’t the same as letting go. Harold is an incredible narrator—tender, sharp, and unforgettable—the best animal voice since Marcellus the octopus in Remarkably Bright Creatures. A beautiful reminder that broken hearts can learn to love again.”—Ali Brady, USA Today bestselling author of Battle of the Bookstores

“Told from a dog’s perspective, in the vein of The Art of Racing in the Rain, Dog Person captures the richest emotions: love, loss, found families, healing, and the warm wit of a precious dog . . . all set at a bookstore! Love stories don’t come any bigger than this.”—Rochelle Weinstein, bestselling author of This Is Not How It Ends

“Filled with tender moments and lighthearted humor, Camille Pagán’s Dog Person offers a relatable story via the perspective of a man’s best friend that is utterly refreshing and clever.”—Suzanne Park, author of One Last Word

“Poignant . . . Romance fans will want to read this one with tissues at the ready.”—Publishers Weekly

“A story of grief, healing, unexpected love, and the magic of books . . . Recommended to readers who loved The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein or A Dog’s Purpose by W. Bruce Cameron.”—Library Journal

“An emotional story of love and grief, perfect for dog lovers and book lovers alike.”—Kirkus Reviews
