In this summary episode, we dive into Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt a quietly powerful story about grief, unlikely friendships, and the healing magic of connection. We follow Tova, a woman learning how to live after loss, Cameron, a man searching for where he belongs, and Marcellus, an octopus who knows way more than he should (and yes, he absolutely steals the show).
We break down the full story from start to finish, unpack the emotional gut punches, the gentle humor, and the moments that had us staring at the wall thinking about life. Plus, we chat about why this book hits so hard without ever raising its voice. Of course, we pair it with a themed cocktail, The Quiet Tide, and finish with our official shot ratings to decide if this one deserves another round.
Grab your drink, get comfy, and come swim in your feelings with us. 🍸📚
