A light read but I didn't mind that because I listened to it commuting to and from work. I enjoyed Dewey's story. I also liked learning about the author's life and a bit about Iowa. I don't think people who picked up the book just for Dewey's story would appreciate Myron's own life story woven in, but I didn't mind it, maybe because I'm a Librarian as well.
More of a 3.5 star, might have had a few tears at the end
I loved the tale of Dewey, the rescued kitten who got to live a long and happy life in an library in Iowa but I wasn’t as keen on the interwoven autobiography of his owner and champion
Wish I could get a cat for my library now

If you're a cat person, read this! It'll touch your ❤️
Very touching story. I enjoyed the story of Dewey and learning a bit about Dewey's owner. It reminded me of growing up in my small town in NE.

Cute book with some anecdotes about life in a small town and how all that translates into our broader world. Read this with my son and we both loved it. Dewey the Library cat is the universal language of love.

A simply told, light read, that is enjoyable, but not great. Dewey Readmore Books started his career as Library Cat, when he was deposited in the book drop box on one of the coldest days in January, and subsequently adopted by the head librarian. I am not sure I understand the wide popularity of this memoir. It’s less about the cat, than it is about the librarian who adopted him.
