Amazingly perfect idea! Imagine it could actually happen :)
The story was cozy, cute, bitter-sweet and heartwarming.

This is a delightfully charming and sweet little tale about Grimaldi the cat who is sent back to Earth to live out his remaining eight lives. He visits 1909, 1935, 1942, 1953, 1969, 1997, 2002 and 2022 and the story is told in a series of glimpses or vignettes as told through Grimaldi‘s eyes. Engaging and also a little poignant in places. I read this with my online book club, https://thereadingloft.groups.io/g/main/topics

This is rather strange…haven‘t decided if I like it yet.

Well this was an interesting part fantasy, part maybe (with a little tweak) almost horror story. Anytime souls are integral to a story my creep factor rises and I start thinking HP death eaters.

annahenke I found this so different but very good! 3d
marleed @annahenke it was certainly different and I liked it too. Many book I read unfold as I‘d expect so it‘s always intriguing for me to read a book with an unanticipated direction. 3d
annahenke @marleed exactly! 2d

After a few weeks of just “meh” reading, I‘m excited to start my week with this one. I hope it‘s as good as I want it to be.

BC_Dittemore I‘ve heard excellent things about this. I was gonna try to put it on hold at one of my libraries but every list is like 80 ppl waiting for 4 copies. 😅 4d
bio_chem06 @BC_Dittemore, surprisingly I didn‘t have to wait on the list long. So far I‘m enjoying it, it‘s not like anything I‘ve read before. It has historical fiction aspects but then it has “witches” in the dustbowl. Very interesting and I‘ve read 150 pages in two days. 3d

Whew boy, this has been tough to get into. I‘m 25% thru and have been reading this book for four weeks, two days. Soooo slowww.

I love reading about the Dust Bowl, so got an ARC from NetGalley and have been chipping away at it for ages. I almost DNF‘d but decided to get the audio from the library to see if that helps me push thru, and it does. I‘m finally getting a little bit eager to see where the story goes. But I‘ve really had to work for it.

annahenke I want to read this because I like her and I like this time period. However, this is not the first I‘ve heard of it being slow. 6d

I just found out that the movie I loved back in the day, Practical Magic, was book 3 in a series.....so I just had to

monalyisha I loved the movie first (as a teenager) and then read the book later (in my twenties). It remains one of the only examples I can point to where I love the book and the movie equally -- and what's more impressive is that there are *distinct* differences between the two! 1w
itsjustme40something This makes me excited to read it now, since we know they always butcher the book. I'm the most excited for book 2, which I was told was about the Aunts...who I plan to be as I age 1w
