Our favorite Yule Book Flood Book this year!
Favorite quote: "'Books have tremendous power.’ That was his grandfather’s mantra. To tell the truth, the old man wasn’t much of a talker, but when he got onto the subject of books he would suddenly burst into life. His narrow eyes would crease into a smile, and words flew out of his mouth with passionate energy.”
“There are timeless stories, powerful enough to have survived through the ages. Read lots of books like these – they’ll be like friends to you. They’ll inspire and support you.”
I literally bookmarked 17 quotes in this book to choose from; I wish I could share them all but you’ll just have to read this wonderful book!
From the publisher: From the #1 bestselling author in Japan comes a celebration of books, cats, and the people who love them. This enthralling tale of books, first love, fantasy, and an unusual friendship with a talking cat is a story for those for whom books are so much more than words on paper.
"Cats, books, young love, and adventure: catnip for a variety of readers!" –Kirkus
