The story is very interesting I like this dual point of view of the humans and cats. It's is a very inspirational book. And a very nice quick read. And I love that you can identify a lot with human problems. That normally as humans we can see.

Not a type of book I normally read. I found it mostly enjoyable and reflective but did have to make myself finish it as it doesn't push you along into reading more.

Beautiful and austere, this book of four interconnected stories forms a whole novella. It’s about loneliness and grief, and about the joy we receive when we love a cat who loves us back. Each section is told in alternating voices, one human and one cat, and it’s a warm storytelling device, showing the cats’ lives to be as vibrant as those of the humans. Hard to read if you’re feeling melancholy but overall full of love and compassion.
