I’m reading a book about a talking cat and it’s frustrating me. There’s 3 books (so far) and the cat is on the cover of each as below.
But the description of the cat (in each book) says the right side of his head is black and the left is brown/white.
Surely the picture is the wrong way round??

I know my book posts are fascinating, but I keep forgetting to post. Poor you.
Read a few since the last one, struggled with the one I finished today so back to an easy read!

New book day.
I had a discussion in the Works about this author as she is popular in the online reading groups I’m in. For me, I just find her books easy reading so it gets my book numbers up. It’s not amazing writing.

Tonight’s film- The Strangers: Chapter 1 (2024)
A new variation on the film series. Jumpy as fuck and equally disturbing.
At least they kept the protagonists names. Although I spent a while thinking the giant with the axe was called bag-head or sack-head. It’s actually scarecrow. Who knew.
