This is a very touching story. I wish babies could decide whose child they want to be to help with custody battles.

As much as Nick's action is admirable, I hope he didn't regret the act because of law. The book has an interesting plot that I would like to read. Nice and wonderful review

This sounds like that story which will make one wish they could turn back the time and be the main character to stir things another direction.

A person's true character is revealed when under pressure and there's no time to prepare.
Nick proved his worth despite the hurdles that ensued.
Wonderful review that draws a reader into the story and excellent book to the author.

Nick should have contacted authorities and got the child through the legal way. I hope he gets curby back and regains his life. Thanks for the amazing review.

I had read the blurb and thought the book sounded really interesting. Your review reinforces that impression. I'm a little disappointed to read about the missing elements of emotions and plot development, but I hope they won't hinder my enjoyment of the story, if I decide to read the book. Thank you for a great review!

'Official Review: Curby' by Adrian Del Valle is a sound introduction to the story of the book for readers. It well explores the relevant points of the book for keen readers. The point that this is a story of an unusual family bond without the typical blood relations is worth mentioning in the review. Also, the point that it explores various forms of romance, the effects of toxic relationships, and the system that governs child protection and adoption, as mentioned in the review, is remarkable for readers. It was great to learn that this is a fictional short story with a healthy sprinkling of cuteness and a dash of mystery and detective work!

This is a very touching story. The death of the mother was painful. but I hope it has a happy ending with Curby living with Nick.
Thanks for the amazing review.

Heartwarming is the right word for this beautiful storyline. Fighting to keep custody of curvy through terribly difficult situations is inspiring.

This book is definitely quick with the hard hitting punches; the talk about how strong the suction is on the street sweeper and the approaching box had me fearing the worst. Gripping from the start.

"Curby" by Adrian del valle. A very interesting book, looks so real when reading, although it happens in real life. Nick Santinelli seeing Curby was a surprise but a gift from above. Sandra on the other side was diagnosed of cancer, having three years to live, but was happy to feel motherhood before leaving. Although things later fell apart for Nick having losing Sandra. Congrats on your #BOTD.

I was surprised the author covered so much in a little over 100 pages; it is understandable that some aspects would be left out. I am interested in how Curby fares and look forward to reading this book. Thank you for your recommendation, and congrats on BOTD.

This sounds like an interesting story and a story that talks about love and bond. Although Curby was not lucky from the beginning but will be around people that love him.Thanks for the great review!
