There were still a lot of things the two of us had never seen before

I hadn't realised how deeply Satoru and Nana had impacted me until I reached the final chapters. I originally thought that The Travelling Cat Chronicles was just a nice and quick book I can smash through in one day but boy was I wrong. The subtleness and tenderness of Nana and Satoru's journey in real life along with delving into Satoru's childhood

Spoiler

up until the very end

was heartwarming and I loved every second of it.

This book just really hit me in a way I wasn't expecting and I sure won't be forgetting this feeling anytime soon.

This book wrecked me, the ending had me sobbing and hugging my cat.

I loved this book so much and its discussion of life and the importance of our loved ones, especially the animals in our lives. This is a book I think every cat person should read.

Todo fue risas y diversión hasta que llegué al capítulo 4, después de eso no pude parar de llorar.

Es un libro hermoso, cuando lo empecé no esperaba amarlo tanto, pero queda definitivamente entre mis libros favoritos, aunque no se si algún día lo releeria.

Very emotional and well written. Had a lot of sweet and loving moments as well as sad ones. I'm so glad to have read it even in it left me crying in my government class.
