We all hoard to a certain extent. If you can keep it in check it might be considered collecting—baseball cards, antique clocks, movie ephemera (I collect words!). But when it gets out of control then you’ve got problems. Paxton, a professional cleaner, divides hoarders into 5 categories and delineates the warning signs of escalating trouble and offers suggestions for coping (and hopefully controlling) the situation for both the hoarder and those that care about them. A frightening, yet compassionate, look at a growing epidemic.

Enzo is not like other dogs; he's learned so much by watching television and paying attention to his master's musings about life and auto racing and he is very frustrated by not being able to communicate with anything more than gestures. Enzo, a firm believer in reincarnation, can't wait for the day when his soul returns to earth in the body of a human. The Art of Racing in the Rain is an emotionally stirring, thrillingly imaginative novel.
