MY THOUGHTS: First off, I've joined a new reading challenge just because of this book. It's a series of books and I loved it so much I've joined Yvonne over at Socrates' Book Reviews for the Finish A Series Challenge.
I will be reading The Cat Who series. Don't know if I'll finish it this year, but will give it my best shot. There are 30 books in the series. I love reading a good mystery and this one is really good. Kept me glued to the book from the first page. What I liked about this book, the characters names, they kind of quirky. And the word Chapters is spelled backward though the book. As for finding out who was the murderer, well that was worth the wait. It wasn't who I thought it was. I like that when a book can make me guess and I'm wrong. So who is the culprit? You'll have to read the book to find out.

MY RATING: 5

I started this series last year. My library doesn't have all the books in the series, but those I've read so far I've ended up loving!

As much as I love cats, I haven't gotten into this series yet. Enjoy and welcome to the challenge!
