fun cat stories
THE CATS OF IRELAND is a standalone read. It is a collection of stories, yarns, etc. about cats in Ireland. I think there is a big interest in Ireland for those of us in the United States. This is a fun, entertaining read. Lots of information on cats, Ireland, history of Ireland. I found it to be very interesting and enjoyable for any age group.There is also a smattering of the language, I especially liked the fact that they told us a word or phrase and then gave us the way to pronounce it and spell it. I'm still fascinated with all things Irish. A fun little book and I definitely recommend it. I believe even children would enjoy having it read to them.I was not paid for this review. I am not a writer nor do I know one. I am not kin to this author. I am a reader and this is my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. 3/16/2021

A Relaxing Bit of Fluff
Pun intended. I found this book more entertaining Han I expected -- and I'm not a cat lover. I am American-Irish, though, and I picked up this book out of curiosity about the role of cats in Irish folklore. Alas, that was only a wee part of the book. It spent more time talking about real felines and their devoted servants and even includes a chapter on immigrating to Ireland with your feline family. For sheer enjoyment, I would have given this book a solid four. Unfortunately, for lack of editing, which made me stumble in a lot of places, it gets a three. I planned to round up to a four until I read that the author is also an editor. An editor should know the value of having at least one fresh set of professional eyes find what the author missed, possibly through familiarity with what it's supposed to say.

even more hilarious!
EVEN MORE HILARIOUS! As soon as I finished reading "All the places I could pee", a collection of cat poems by the same author, I had to read this book, too. It's even funnier! I don't know how the author does it, but he somehow manages to capture the feline essence and place it in another culture. In this case, Ireland. Yes, the cat is interested in guinness but the cultural interests go way deeper. Anyone who loves cat will seriously like this author's books.
