Thank you to Netgalley for the complimentary copy. This book is pure comfort. Stanis's little world feels like a warm sunbeam you can step into, and the art is just gorgeous, expressive, and full of that gentle, cat-shaped joy. Every page has this heart warming sweetness that makes you slow down and breathe a little easier.
I loved how the illustrations carry the "wisdom" in such a tender way. It's not trying to be profound; it's simply cozy, kind, and quietly uplifting. A perfect pick-me-up read that leaves you smiling and maybe wanting to curl up for a nap like Stanis.

Thank you to Netgalley for the complimentary copy. Okay... this audiobook had me confused in the beginning. I kept losing track of who's who, and what's happening. It wasn't bad, just... disorienting.
But then that ending.
INSANE.
I genuinely didn't see it coming until the very last minute. RL Stine really said: let me scramble your brain for an hour and then slap you with a reveal.
Overall: messy start, wild finish, and the kind of twist that makes you sit up straight and replay the last chapter in your head.

Thank you to Netgalley for the complimentary copy. This is such an adorable little book. The artwork is unbelievably cute every page feels like a soft, cozy moment with a tiny cat discovering the world. I loved how the illustrations gently introduce Japanese words and sprinkle in cultural details along the way. It feels like youâre traveling beside them, learning small things that make the journey sweeter.A very charming, easy read that leaves you smiling.

Flummoxed. Utterly flummoxed. Also can we please stop with these endings?

Finally dropping this because I just can't anymore. Two stars for the banter between Evie and Villain but everything else just falls flat is so boring
