Our November book will be Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. It was named a Best Book of Summer 2022 by the Chicago Tribune and centers on the story of a widow’s unlikely friendship with a giant Pacific octopus reluctantly residing at the local aquarium. 
 
The  Washington Post described it as  "an ultimately feel-good but deceptively sensitive debut about what it feels like to have love taken from you, only to find it again in the most unexpected places. . . . Memorable and tender.” 
 
Netflix is currently working on an adaptation of the novel, starring Sally Field.
