“Remarkably Bright Creatures” by Shelby van Pelt tells the story of a widow wrestling with the loss of her husband and missing son. In a surprising turn of events, she befriends a giant Pacific octopus at the aquarium where she works. Hill said van Pelt’s debut novel is a current favorite.
“It features a startlingly funny octopus and insight into human (and cephalopod) grief. Prepare to cry,” she said.
