Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't by me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Mystical Cat Shelter by Heather Fawcett

Agnes Aubert is a cat person. Her passion and avocation are to rescue every cat in Montreal.  Her cat adoption charity’s home is semi-destroyed as collateral damage from a nearby wizard duel.  The bulk of the plot is struggling to find a new home and to continue to save cats.

 Agnes’ sister, Elise, is her pragmatic associate, while Agnes herself is compulsively organized but over-empathetic with her cats.  Agnes is highly resentful of wizards in general and specifically disdainful of the Witch King, Havelock Renard.

The sisters’ search for a new home leads to confrontation with irate landlords and other shopkeepers.  The search is complicated by inadvertent contact with the Wizard King himself.

Agnes discovers help in the goal of saving cats in unusual places as well as an attitude change about the value of magic.

The endearing part of the book is Agnes's forthright approach to chaos, and her efforts to organize it.

 The book was entertaining and I recommend it.
