Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt

Tova Sullivan works the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, where she becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus is capable of more than anyone can imagine including, perhaps, finding out what happened to Tova’s son who disappeared years before.

This imaginative story of unlikely friendships, new beginnings and letting go, is a BCL staff favorite.
