Freeform Movie The Art of Racing in the Rain

OMG.  I am crying so hard.  I'm not a big movie fan but I was glude to the TV.  Raining/snowing out and messy.  One of those days.  I usually movtivate early and go non-stop, but not today.  If you get a chance and you like dogs, you should watch it.

@rms1954 Never have seen the movie but have read the book many times.

 

I guarantee you will love it and the end...lots of happy tears at the end of the book. One of my top 10 best books EVER.

@cindyNC How do you know you couldn't read the book? The tears are happy and the ending is truly wonderful and lets you believe that life goes on.

 

If you're only going by comments you should read it for yourself. I'm sure it's better than the movie, the books usually are.

One of my all time favorite books! I haven't seen the movie, but I will look for it on Freeform.

   The book is told in retrospect, so the beginning is sad, but the rest of book is very uplifting. I almost feel like it should be required reading for anyone who has ever lost a beloved pet. I read it not too long after we lost our first Springer Spaniel and I felt so much better after I finished the book.🐾
