Hello meautiful library guests
and
Welcome to the Mewton-Clawson Library at BBHQ
Thank mew for joining me in the stacks today, and this week I wasn't really feeling my best, (too much pawtying for my 21st! MOL) so I decided to share a cute throwback to April 2018.
That's the only purroblem with getting older, mew have more bad days than good days, and after the last few days of overindulging, I'm looking rather worse for wear! MOL
But I have been having the best birthday week ever, and for those who may have missed out on my pawty, DON'T PANIC, it's still happening and going strong, and mew can click here to join in the fun!
Anyhoo let's look at this week's top book pick.
Today the P.A. is also joining in Friday Fill-ins Blog Hop with the pawesome 15 & Meowing and Four-Legged Furballs.
1. If I were to attend a Halloween party, my costume would be _________.
2. On Halloween, I plan to _________.
3. If my life were a scary movie, it would be titled _________.
4. If I found an ouija board, I would _________.
The P.A.'s answers are...
1. If I were to attend a Halloween party, my costume would be Cat Woman.
2. On Halloween, I plan to watch a movie with the fire on and stay super toasty.
3. If my life were a scary movie, it would be titled Claws of Terror. And funnily enough, stop by on Tuesday and see what's happening on Halloween!
4. If I found an ouija board, I would get rid of it stat! I've got enough spooks without inviting more! LOL
Today, as it's the last Friyay of the month, we're also joining in the furrbulous...
So do drop by the marvellous Mudpie's blog at www.mochasmysteriesmeows.com to join in.
Basil's photo fail from September 2016.
He obviously was getting impatient with the P.A., and this would have been about getting food.
"Come on, hurry up, I'm starving!" said Basil. "It's been fifteen minutes since my last snack!"
This week's top book pick is...
Mewton-Clawson Library Copy

Here's a little snippet of the book blurb:
How is one to start again after losing the one thing that speaks to your heart and fuels your passion?
After a serious accident leaves Calliope Rose Collins unable to continue with the career that has owned her soul for most of her life, she returns to Foxtail Lake, Hollister House, and Great Aunt Gracie, only to find, childhood friend, Officer Cass Wylander, knee deep in a murder mystery involving a twelve year old girl who died in the exact same manner as Callie's best friend Stacy had died twenty years prior. Callie is certain the two deaths must be linked, but Cass has a suspect in custody and the Chief of Police wants the case closed in order to get the mayor off his back, so in spite of the fact that Callie is certain that they have the wrong man, it looks like the case will be closed.

This week I read the first book in "A Cat in the Attic Mystery Series: The Curse of Hollister House" by Kathi Daley, and I must say that it exceeded my expectations. This book is purrfect for anyone who is looking for a cozy cat mystery with a spine-tingling edge to get into the Halloween spirit.
The author's character development is impressive, and I found myself completely invested in their journey throughout the pages. The plot twists were well crafted, and I was left completely surprised on more than one occasion. And Alister the Cat is a welcome part of the plot, and he spends time with Callie, the book's protagonist.
The setting of the old, creepy mansion was described with such detail that it added an eerie atmosphere to the story. The author's writing style is incredibly engaging, and I found myself unable to put the book down. It's a quick read that can easily be finished in just a few sittings. I really recommend this book to cat mystery lovers who want a touch of Halloween magic in their reading material.
And if mew have Kindle Unlimited this book is included in the catalogue, plus there are another four books in the series that I will review during the current season.

The Mystery Before Christmas ~ 2

Nice photo fail, Angel Basil.
It sounds like you've found an excellent start of a series in that book.
