Samenvatting

Until Tuesday is Horse Boy meets Dewey (with a bit of Tuesdays with Morrie thrown in)





A heartwarming dog story like no other: Tuesday, a lovable golden retriever, changes a former soldier's life forever.

A highly decorated captain in the U.S. Army, Luis Montalvan never backed down from a challenge during his two tours of duty in Iraq. After returning home from combat, however, his physical wounds and crippling post-traumatic stress disorder began to take their toll. He wondered if he would ever recover.

Then Luis met Tuesday, a sensitive golden retriever trained to assist the disabled. Tuesday had lived among prisoners and at a home for troubled boys, and he found it difficult to trust in or connect with a human being--until Luis.

Until Tuesday is the story of how two wounded warriors, who had given so much and suffered the consequences, found salvation in each other. It is a story about war and peace, injury and recovery, psychological wounds and spiritual restoration. But more than that, it is a story about the love between a man and dog, and how, together, they healed each other's souls.

    Tuesday and Luis crawl under your skin.
    I'm Dutch and live in The Netherlands so I hope my English is well enough to give a review. This is a book that will become (be) a bestseller all over the world. Maybe you only will read this book because you saw the gorgeous picture of Tuesday but whatever the reason is, it will change your life forever. Tuesday and Luis crawl under your skin and won't let go. Hope to see this book translated in as many languages as possible. So people who don't read English will understand what I mean by reading this book. Love it ! This is a book that is a gift you will share and you need to share as a gift. This book already hit the NY Times bestseller list and just came out in the beginning of may. I'm sure it will become a movie as well. But the book is here to order.

  • A shining light in a world with so much sadness

    I don't often read these kinds of books but something about this story drew me in after reading about Luis Carlos Montalvan and his service dog Tuesday in the news. This book has it all. There's the drama of Luis' experiences in Iraq and the political insights about what was really going on over there. But the crux of the book is of course an incredibly inspiring and heart-warming story of a man's struggle against his illness of post-traumatic stress disorder and the amazing role that the love and devotion of Tuesday played in saving this man's life. You will laugh, you will cry from both joy and sadness, you will feel uplifted and inspired and you will learn an incredible amount about service dogs, about the silent disease that PTSD is and about the heights of courage and love that we humans (and our best friend the dog) can be capable of.
