![]() I’d heard good things about this novel, but was later than planned getting to it due to a combination of an overwhelming TBR pile and recent commitments. Lily and the Octopus reminds us how it feels to love fiercely, how difficult it can be to let go, and how the fight for those we love is the greatest fight of all. We can tell you that this is a story about that special someone: the one you trust, the one you can’t live without.įor Ted Flask, that someone special is his aging companion Lily, who happens to be a dog. The magic of this novel is in the read, and we don’t want to spoil it by giving away too many details. It’s as frightening as it is confounding. ![]() Like it is announcing itself and would like the room. The octopus looks angry as much as out of place. However it’s in the opening scene that Ted first sees the octopus. We ‘get’ that 42 yr old Ted is gay and that Lily is his beloved and constant companion and confidante. It’s Thursday, you see – the night Ted and Lily put aside to talk about cute boys. When we first meet Ted and Lily (his 12 year old dachshund) they are debating the Ryans (Gosling vs Reynolds). ![]()
