But Andrew Cotter is a very good man. You finish the book knowing that all will be fine with The Company no matter what happens in their future. New career? New dog? New house? Whatever 2021 brings, Olive, Mabel and The Boss will face it with joy as long as they are together. Disclaimer: I love dogs. I love dog books. Cannot at present put my finger on any dog book I did not like. However, rarely have I enjoyed a dog book as much as I did this one. This can be attributed, in part, to the fact that Olive and Mabel are very much alive at the end of the book (happy spoiler alert!). But what Mr. Cotter has accomplished is to remind us, in this wildly uncertain year, what serenity can be found in steadying our focus to remain in this present day, preferably in the company of two very good dogs for guidance. Olive, Mabel & Me is a highly entertaining look at something good that as come out of this terrible year – 2020. And author Andrew Cotter is continuing to delight his, and his girls’ fans in Olive, Mabel & Me, his debut work. Highly recommended. An absolutely delightful storyline, you will laugh and you will want to cry. I love reading about pets and how they travel through life. Andrew Cotter did an excellent job of writing this book and sharing his journey of Olive and Mabel.

Olive, Mabel and Me: Life and Adventures with Two Very Good

First book read in 2021, a brand new year, a brand new beginning. In a few days’ time I will be closer to 60 than 50 and, I’ve decided that, in terms of books, I’m going to go forth and read enjoyably – so that will inevitably mean DNF’s. I’m not going to waste any more time than necessary if a book and I do not gel. I am currently on holidays from work (yes, I still do that thing which is a necessary evil) and my grown daughter incredulously said to someone on Christmas Day that ‘Mum has taken a month off work to read’! Haha, well that’s not 100% accurate but I do like the analogy. I learned somewhere that Cotter was planning a book, but I wasn't sure that it had become a reality until the week before Christmas. Obviously it was my gift to myself! lol present: TV tennis commentator for Wimbledon, AEGON Championships at Queen's Club and AEGON International at Eastbourne Harmon, Steph (10 April 2020).

Anyone who has had dogs in their life will grin repeatedly at Mr. Cotter's descriptions of the lovable idiosyncrasies of our canine companions. Who is the wiser species, however - human or canine - in facing each day with optimism and enthusiasm, accepting what they cannot control, making the best of things, and remaining vulnerable and open to love? In 2008, he began commentating on tennis and is a regular voice for the Wimbledon Championships on the BBC, whose commentating is also used for the tournament’s English language coverage on Eurosport.

I love them all, including Run With Me and Intermission, where first Olive and then Mabel wore a camera to give us a dog's eye view of time with The Boss. There have been videos of Olive and Mabel’s antics which have cheered many during this year of the pandemic and Andrew is still amazed at the popularity of his two Labs. Devoted, loving and loyal – dog lovers know that’s what dogs are. And Olive and Mabel have it in spades – they are very good dogs.
