The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers (2007)
All my Goodreads friends can finally rejoiced--I've finished all the Cat Who books! Now you can stop getting notifications that I'm reading them/finished with them.

The Cat Who Talked to Ghosts (1990)
I really liked this book; I liked the mystery, I liked Qwill, I liked the cats. What I didn't like:Qwill, who is a billionaire, is Morally Cheap. By that, I mean the guy has money, but he doesn't want to spend it. He has to buy a suit for a funeral, and doesn't want to pay the tailor. Does he...

The Cat Who Robbed a Bank (2001)
I cannot honestly say I remember how I found this book, but since it was a mystery, and it concerned cats, I thought it might be an interesting read. I have to say I was somewhat disappointed. I realize this is a series of books, and I came in now knowing any of the characters, but I nearly gav...
