Loved the characters’ special gifts! An entertaining read! …the imaginative talents the author assigned to the very likable main characters interested me most. The rest was a somewhat predictable but enjoyable romance.

Slow going at the beginning because I had a hard time with an octopus relating his thoughts and feelings. But the other characters came alive after the first 100 pages, so that I felt at the end that I knew them. Loved the surprise ending!
