These two books couldn't be more different from each other! Yet, cats are a binding factor in each of them; their feline wiles twist and snake around the storylines, to become an important parts of the plots!

A Week in Winter
Author: Maeve Binchy
Hardcover, 464 pages Published October 11th 2012 by Orion ISBN 140911399X (ISBN13: 9781409113997) |
W. Bruce Cameron's, "A Dog's Way Home" highlights the trials that TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) activists face daily; ignorance and dislike. Add a mother who suffers from PTSD after her service in the Middle East, and then mix in a stray dog who pushes everyone's lives onto new courses. But then Bella runs afoul of Animal Control in Denver, Colorado, and the story grabs you and keeps you in suspense!
"A Week In Winter" by Maeve Binchy, weaves an Irish story of love and regret, transgressions and redemption, youth and hard-won knowledge, wrapped around an old mansion that is converted into an inn. And a wee kitten, named Sophia, loved by the elderly Queenie, moves through the mansion...and the lives of all of the characters in the book...while being a sweet, gentle cat.
Like me, you all adore cats, and probably really enjoy a good story too! I highly recommend both of these books; they'll take you to places you've never been before, and into the minds and hearts of good people...and indifferent people, with a purring housecat, community cat clowder, or more (!) added into the mix.
