Am I reading yet another cat graphic novel? Of course I am. And it‘s just as relatable as others I‘ve read in the past. 😻

Funny and heartbreaking comics about the life and passing of Linny, a cat so persnickity and emo, she makes Miette looks phlegmatic. (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/miette)

Knisley wrote these comics partially because she knew she would lose Linny someday and wanted to record her... thereby setting her readers up to also be heartbroken. 💔 But honestly it wouldn't be the same book without the end.

Miss Cassandra‘s personal woe: when she tilts her head back with her big sad eyes, and her mean uncaring human keeps reading her book instead of devoting all her attention to giving Miss Cassandra neck scritches.

I‘ve been seeing this book everywhere, and I I‘m glad I jumped on the Linney train. This was a quick, funny read that was real in just that way that will make both cat lovers and haters smile and laugh for totally opposite reasons.

Ruthiella How can you be so uncaring! 😹 3mo

Two things:
1. Meet Olympia — the kitten that my youngest son adopted and she‘s won all of us over ♥️
2. I love Lucy Knisley and I‘ll read anything she creates. This book is a one-sitting read for not just cat-lovers, anyone really. But cat lovers will be especially charmed.
Perfect timing that we have a new buddy just when I picked up Knisley‘s latest.
