I had just read Remarkably Bright Creatures and wanted to learn more about octopuses. I found this book to be entertaining and informative. And I feel closer to octopuses than I ever did before. So this purchase was for a gift for a friend who I thought would enjoy both books as much as I did.

One of my all time favs

Already purchased for myself and loved it. Genuinely one of my favorite books of all time. My girlfriend loved it and she doesn't normally go for non-fiction. Getting two more copies for my brothers. :)
