Remarkably Bright Creature by Shelby Van Pelt is a story of loss and loneliness and learning to appreciate what is right in front of you.  Tova Sullivan lost her son Erik thirty years ago.  She now works at a local aquarium cleaning the facility at night.  After befriending the Giant Pacific Octopus Marcellus, she slips and falls breaking her foot at work.  While she is laid up a young man named Cameron comes to town looking for his father.  The two strike up an unlikely friendship but Marcellus knows there is more to the story than either Tova or Cameron realize.
