I always love them, but it did make me, as you said, hug them a little harder.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-48578005035045255532010-10-12T15:21:09.579-05:002010-10-12T15:21:09.579-05:00Great review, Lesa.

Maybe it's because I generally don't enjoy anthologies as much as I enjoy books about just one single character, or, in this case, cat. The book is a wonderful testament to the role cats play in our lives, and makes you hug your own cats a little harder after reading, that's for sure.Ingrid Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01874816179648089811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-69146517004609608972010-10-11T20:05:41.387-05:002010-10-11T20:05:41.387-05:00Oh, I like that, Pam - catquel.

The humans, and sometimes the cats, had rough lives at times. I think you'll like it.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-86836487719044968242010-10-11T10:29:10.956-05:002010-10-11T10:29:10.956-05:00I'm always afraid these kinds of books will be...I'm always afraid these kinds of books will be saccharine, but this sounds like a good one, with honestly moving and sweet tales (tails?).

No, it probably won't be on the bestseller lists as long as Dewey, but it's another book with heart.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-13543228046888329552010-10-11T04:40:20.448-05:002010-10-11T04:40:20.448-05:00Sounds like another winner!
