Homer's Odyssey by Gwen Cooper

3.0

---

I’m a cat lady, I have three, two of them rescues so I’m always drawn to a cat book, although I find them a bit hit and miss if I’m honest. But who couldn’t love Homer, he sounds like a right character, although I’m well aware that cats with disabilities can have a perfectly happy and complete life and Homer is a great example of this. At times the book felt a bit rambling but there were parts that just got me, the aftermath of 9/11 and trying to get back to her apartment being one example. I’m not normally a crier at book, films yes, but not books. I can probably count on one hand the books that made me shed a tear, but this one got me a little. I’d like to think it just caught me on a low day (and who isn’t having the odd one of those right now) but I'm not so sure.
