Happy Thursday! Welcome back to talk about our week and our reading. Actually, I’ve been juggling reading this week, working on reviews for Library Journal while reading for myself as well. It’s just that time of month. And, this past weekend, I watched college football and went to dinner at my sister’s. Her daughter’s family was in town, and it was so nice to see them.

I’m currently reading Alex Howard’s The Ghost Cat. I think one of you recommended it, although I don’t remember who it was. I’ve had the book out from the library for a while. I’m going to admit I bogged down with the chapter labeled 1969. I’ll keep going but I found the earlier adventures of Grimalkin, the ghost cat, more interesting. The blurb calls it “A cozy historical fiction novel with a touch of magical realism”.

It begins in 1902 in Edinburgh, and follows a cat named Grimalkin through his nine lives as he meets the inhabitants through the centuries. It ends in September 2022. As I said, I’m going to keep going, but the last chapter was a rough one as Grimalkin lost a human he had loved since he was a kitten.

What about you? What have you been doing this week? What are you reading?
