August Book Sense Pick

A fading aristocrat and self-proclaimed 'scientist of women.' A purring, voluptuous siren. A young shop-girl enduring the clammy touch of her boss and hating herself for accepting the modest banknotes he tucks into her pocket afterward. An earnest, devout young doorman, feeling the irresistible pull toward fundamentalism. A cynical, secretly gay newspaper editor, helplessly in love with a peasant security guard. A roof-squatting tailor, scheming to own property. A corrupt and corpulent politician, twisting the Koran to justify taking a mistress.

All live in the Yacoubian Building, a once-elegant temple of Art Deco splendor slowly decaying in the smog and hubbub of downtown Cairo, Egypt. In the course of this unforgettable novel, these disparate lives converge, careening inexorably toward an explosive conclusion. Tragicomic, passionate, shockingly frank in its sexuality, and brimming with an extraordinary, embracing human compassion, The Yacoubian Building is a literary achievement of the first order.

Her favorite
Style: Tipsy Rosé
Our weimaraner Gracie loves her wine glass. Whenever it's empty she drops it in front of us to have it refilled. It's very durable and cute, it's easy to fill plus she has no trouble carrying it around. We'll be getting another so she doesn't have to continue to hide it from our other girl. It's quite obviously her favorite.

Good for smaller dogs too
Style: Tipsy Rosé
This dog toy states it's for large dogs (50+ lbs) but I bought it for my 12 lbs dog anyway, and Im glad I did because she loves it. Keeps her entertained. So much better than just handing her treats. When I hear it rolling across the floor I know she's busy and I dont need to worry about what she's up to. The hole is a good size for treats to fit in but she still has to work to get them out.
