A book with a cat on the cover

[Novalynda]

I read Nimona by Noelle Stevenson for this prompt.

A few months ago I read Texts From Mittens: A Cat Who Has an Unlimited Data Plan...and Isn't Afraid to Use It and somehow failed to slot it in to this very obvious slot. It wasn't as funny as I'd hoped.

[Willoyd]

Don't think it's been mentioned yet, although a book on the same subject was mentioned early in this thread, but I'm intending to read In Search of Schrodinger's Cat by John Gribbin.

[Sara Grace]

I just found a book called Cat Out of Hellwhich also works for a book with a red spine. It's short, only 160 pages. I like it so far (120 pages in)

[Carolina]

A Man Called Ove :)

[Amanda]

I'm filing How to Tell If Your Cat Is Plotting to Kill You by Matthew Inman for this prompt.

To be honest, I was really dreading this topic because #1 I don't like cats (I'm allergic) and #2 most of the options are mystery books which I'm not particularly a fan of. But today I went to the library and searched the shelves and found . Yes, it was a very cheesy romance novel that I wouldn't suggest to people (unless it's for this prompt), it was a quick and easy 100 page read!

The White Tiger is a page-turner, and on the 1001 books list if you are into that sort of thing (I am!)

The Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and Survival is a gripping non-fiction for anyone interested in more science/nature things.

Full discloser: I'm not a cat person at all, so this is the perfect excuse for me to read The Master and Margarita like some others have suggested.

[Cindy]

I'm reading "Code Grey" by Clea Simon.

[Nadine in NY]

I read Business Cat: Money, Power, Treats for this one. I didn't realize it's just a collection of web comics, so it was a very fast read! So, if you're looking to check this box quickly, look no further! It took me longer to get hoopla working properly than it took me to actually read the book. If you have a cat (I don't) and you like slightly off-kilter humor (I do) then you will love this book. For me, it was more like "yeah that was amusingly weird" rather than "LOL"

A few people added we have always lived in the castle to the unreliable narrator category but it would work for this too

[Emanuel]

I read 2 books of the sugar maple series:Feitiços de AmorandMaple Sugar 2.

[Taylor]

For this prompt I read The Zookeeper's Wife: A War Story ... and I was really disappointed! Has anyone else read this? What were your thoughts? I was really expecting to like it but was so, so disappointed!

I was very disappointed. For a start it didn't appear to be about the zookeeper's wife at all! She didn't appear to be a protagonist in any of the resistance efforts or to have a huge amount to do with the zoo for that matter.
What was interesting was the story of the resistance & of the Jews that were saved from the ghetto but I'm sure there are books out there that deal with that subject much better.

[Monica]

I read it last year and really liked it. I didn't know anything about the Warsaw ghetto or the war in Poland until I read this book. I disagree that she didn't do much for the resistance or the zoo. She had an integral part in all of it.

There were parts of the book that seemed unnecessary (the sections about Germans trying to create a pure horse breed), but most of it was very interesting and a different perspective than I've read previously.

I recommend reading about the Katyn Massacre, as well. It is estimated that 22,000 Polish officers, police officers and members of the Polish intelligentsia were executed by NKVD (the Soviet secret police) in the spring of 1940, not to mention hundreds of thousands of Poles who were deported to Siberia after Eastern Poland was occupied by the Soviet Union in 1939. When the mass graves were discovered by Germans in 1943, Churchill and Roosevelt blamed Nazis for the massacre, even though they had the information that Stalin was behind it.

Katyn was also preceded by the Polish Operation of the NKVD against ethnic Poles in the USSR in 1937-1938 as a part of the Great Purge. Other ethnic minorites, including Finns, suffered similar fates before, during and/or after WWII.
