Riffing on the “octopus” theme, The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration into the Wonder of Consciousness by Sy Montgomery looks pretty interesting. And it is on sale today for $1.99 in the US, as part of today’s Kindle Daily Deal, and matched at Kobo US. Where, although it’s not discountable, it is available for 2400 Kobo Super Points, if you have any of those hanging around.

Octopus: The Ocean's Intelligent Invertebrate: A Natural History by Roland C. Anderson is $2.99. I've always liked octopuses starting with my days as a volunteer docent at our local aquarium, where the curators would "work" with the octopuses to provide them with little puzzles, like putting their food in rinsed out peanut butter jars, and watching the octopuses figure out how to open the screw tops, and then also learn/remember how to do it faster in the future. And also from watching them while scuba diving.
