I’ve thought about this book quite a lot since finishing it which is a solid sign of a good book. Some of the stories I found to be absolutely charming and others not as interesting but the ones that were good were worthy of 4/5 stars. The writing was excellent throughout.

A collection of short stories from the perspective of a cat. Not initially linked, but ending in a prequel and a retelling of The Travelling Cat Chronicles. Cat Island (a slice of magical realism to bring a boy closer to his stepmother) was a particularly good story. The Night Visitor less so. I'm still not sure how I feel about the largest part of the book being a retelling, but it was suitably emotional.

I liked a lot of these stories but I don’t think many, if any, will stick with me long
