This month's read: Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt 

Three lonely creatures - two human, one giant Pacific octopus - form relationships that help them cope with loss and anger. In the Sowell Bay Aquarium, the night cleaner is observed by a grumpy and intelligent cephalopod. When a new cleaner comes to work at the aquarium, Marcellus the octopus discovers that he might have answers to the questions haunting their lives.
