I continue to love everything in this series. Lilian Jackson Braun is an excellent writer. You can’t help but feel that her characters all your friends.
Have read several of the “Cat who ….” books. This was typical. Not real entertaining. The mystery was good but kind of dragged on. I think the series has run its course. Too many side scenarios.
Formulaic, just retreads of earlier books. First 15 or so books were good, but the quality & originality went waaayyy down. Read the early ones.
Too bad we lost this author! I love her books
A simple carefree read with enjoyable characters and storyline…who doesn’t love a mystery?
