Excellent Series Introduction For New Series Perfect For Dog Lovers. This is yet another of the multi-author series that have seemingly sprung up in the last few years, mostly in the romance and/ or women's fiction realms, where multiple authors come together to offer up stories around some common McGuffin such as every book has to feature a cruise (2024's Sail Away series, featuring many of these same authors) or every book has to feature a snowglobe in some manner (2019's Snow Globe Christmas MM romance series) or any other common tie in. As in most cases, this introductory book is essentially the first chapters of all of the rest of the books, though this one also has a prologue and epilogue that extend its own story a touch, which actually leads directly into my next main point.
Having now read a few of these as I sit to write this particular review, I can tell you that what sets this particular series apart from all of its predecessors that I've read (a handful or so) is just how well everything is integrated. Every author gets their own dog(s) and their own characters and can tell their story their way, but other than slight differences in style one could almost see this entire series written by a singular author - that is how well the storytelling and editing through 4.5 books has been so far. If you know a bit about each particular author and their style and what is going on in their "real" (non-book) lives, you have a better sense of the distinctiveness of each voice, but otherwise the stories fit so seamlessly together, even when borrowing characters from other books, that it really is quite remarkable just how well everything fits together here.
And yes, as the McGuffin for this series is that all of our central characters are getting new puppies, this series really is perfect for dog lovers of all stripes (though to be clear, these are all Labradors in these books). Sorry, cat lovers. Maybe that will be the next project for these authors or perhaps a similar group. :)
Ultimately a great introduction to the series, and a very quick read at barely 100 pages to boot. Perfect for those times at the end of the year holidays / beginning of the year ramping things back up when maybe you don't have as much time to read - or maybe you find yourself like me and trying to finish the back half of this series before it releases on Jan 1, 2025... *and* read 2.5 *other* books before the calendar flips over into 2025 in just over three more days! Eek!
Very much recommended.
