I love to read. If anyone has any book recommendations, I'd appreciate them.
OMG... you too, huh? I was bawling my eyes out the last several chapters. My dad bought it for me for my birthday... no doubt because it has tow of my favorite words: library and CAT! Until recently, I worked in a library... so books and cats are two of my favorite things... Dewey just tore my heart in two. He was such a gorgeous kitty and his adventures were captured perfectly (I love the Dewey-Carry).Originally Posted by Rang_27
I just finished reading a book last night called "Dewey". It's a true story about a cat who lived in a library in Iowa. I cried at the end, but I recommend it to any cat person.
I would say I didn't cry until the last 2 chapters, but when I did I was almost sobing. I also bawled at the end of Marley & Me. I love books about the human animal bond. There is something so wonderful about the bond that forms between people and animals. It is pure and untainted, unlike the bonds between many people. OK I'll stop, sorry to hijack the thread for a second.Originally Posted by RubSluts'Mommy

His full name was Dewey Readmore Books (Do We Read More Books, but also an homage to OG Readmore, the cartoon character from the 80's). And I am a bit partial to the redheads...
Another thumbs WAY up for this book!!

Who? I will gladly search for the names, but if you can clue me in I would be very appreciative.Originally Posted by strange_wings
Considering the past thread I'm surprised that no one has suggested Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman.
