Our club members have voted for Shelby Van Pelt’s Remarkably Bright Creatures as the Pick of the Month for April 2026.
Remarkably Bright Creatures is about a lonely widow who works nights at an aquarium, a young man trying to figure out his life, and an octopus who becomes an unexpected part of the story. It’s about grief, second chances, and the quiet ways people help each other heal.
Shelby Van Pelt’s debug novel is gentle, engaging, and easy to enjoy without feeling heavy.
