I really thought I was that girl, but I'm not sadly. I want to say I will finish this book one day, but I know it is a lie.

I wanted to love this book so badly!! The first chapter was great but as the book went on I saw way less of the cat and way more droning dialogue. The translator also gave this book major British vibes when I was expecting it to feel Japanese. But, overall I loved the cat and his scathing descriptions of his master and humans in general

Un libro interesante en cuanto concepto y bastante divertido en su narración. La lucha entre lo original japonés y la occidentalización de la era Meiji parece incluso caricaturesca con los personajes que nos acompañan en la historia. Además, la visión externa del gato permite que se cuestionen prácticas y creencias que normalmente se tomarían por sentado.
El único punto que restó valor para mí, fue lo largo que es el libro. A final de cuentas, es un libro sobre divagaciones y con mil referencias; no es tan simple seguir la historia. Creo que la longitud fue complicada para mí, por estas razones. Aún así, hubo pasajes muy entretenidos durante todo el texto.
