The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration Into the Wonder of Consciousness by Sy Montgomery

informative fast-paced

2.25

This book was less focused on learning about octopuses, and more on the author's personal/emotional journey, almost  an autobiography,  and very self-congratulatory. About 2/3 of the way through, the author has several comments regarding people who use wheelchairs, walkers, etc that's super ableist and implies that animals see that as weak/an easy target.
