so-soMy book club picked this one and it was a mixed bag for me. The parts showing a slice of life in 1980s/90s Japan were really interesting but the rest wasn‘t very compelling. It just didn‘t really come together as a whole for me. Only one person at the meeting really liked this.
This was a purchase based entirely on the cover and title
pickMira has invited Dara, her sister, and several others for Christmas. Told from the cat‘s perspective, it is unfortunate that Dara also brought her cats who love to torture him. When his kittens disappear, he gets into misadventures and trouble trying to find them and keep them safe. Then a friendly visitor saves the day. A cute short story.
pickAh, someone took the idea “what if there's actually something sinister behind all the murders happening in [small town]“ and ran with it.
I found it a bit slow at times, and just... didn't wholly click with it. But overall it was a fun idea.
pickLove this series! This time, our fearless kitties are looking for the Orb of the present and their two friends who where kidnapped. Doubt seeps in when their friends are told by other animals that they won't be saved. Cute graphics and wonderful story.
pickThanks to the publisher and Libro.fm for an ALC!
I really like the format of this book. It‘s a short, intense, meditation on modern womanhood and the pandemic through the lens of cat ownership(pro). It‘s sweet and heartfelt, close and curious, lovely and melancholy. #bookspinbingo (Pictured Wednesday All-Kitty)
How's everyone's 2025 bracket coming along? Ever have multiple books in the same series end up competing against each other?

I didn‘t come across “State Fair” in its month, but I got it eventually.
pickEnjoyed this book. Cats looked very creepy but I was okay with that. When the light in the scary lighthouse goes out, our two main cats have to go out to see what the trouble is... could it be the lobster ghost or nothing at all? I thought the story was adorable and the graphics were interesting.
