Supurr salutations pawesome furriends

*wavy paws*

Do mew know how much I've missed mew all?  I've missed mew all terribly so this last couple of weeks and I'm thrilled to be back at last!

Mew may remember last Friday when Basil mentioned that I'd run out of Audible Credits again, this is true and when I tried to renew my plan early on my iPhone it wouldn't let me and immediately I was transported back to last year when the exact same thing happened...

SHOCK!

DENIAL!

But then the P.A. said. "Amber, let's log in to your account on the desk-top computer and check your account status before you start plotting all manner of things like last year!"

"Oh good idea!" I concurred, taking a firm grip of my raging emotions before I was engulfed in a complete meltdown.

So off we went to the P.A.'s office in the Sky-Lounge and logged into my account, and mew'll neffur believe it, we were able to renew my memfurship early so now I have a basket full of lovely credits to spend!

I'm so excited as mew can imagine as I've got so many new books lined up to share with mew that I can barely contain myself, I'm so happy I could burst with joy, but I won't because that would be horribly messy! MOL 

So lets jump in with this weeks supurr special book as I've been waiting to share this with mew since the start of the year.

Here's me with Herms, pawesome leader of the Wonderpurr Gang and all things Purranormal!!! 

Finding Mya

by

Kimberley Koz

Book Blurb:

Eight-year-old Mya has a magical relationship with her grandma's foster kitten, Herman. They talk to each other. Not with words. With tickle thoughts! It’s love at first sight, and they plan to live Happily Ever After. Then the worst happens. Mya's vacation ends, and Herman is given to a woman whose dog treats cats like chew toys. He escapes danger, but the road to finding Mya is scary and tough. She promised to leave picture-maps along the way to her home. All Herman has to do is follow them and he will live Happily Ever After in the safety of Mya’s arms. It's a wonderful plan. Too bad it goes wrong right from the start.

As mew know I really love Herms, and I reviewed

Sherlock Herms Purranormal Mysteries: The Case of the Dancing Ghosts

last year, and it was fabulous.  So I'm delighted to finally review Finding Mya.  So what did I think, I thought it was freakin marvellous.  There were many times when I had leaky eyes and I was feeling Herms stress, but I knew deep down that it would all end up ok... and that made me read faster and faster!  But mew know I hate to give spoilers, so I'll say this; it's a lovely, well thought out story with so many wonderpurr characters along the way.  There are a couple of bitter-sweet moments, but mew know effury big adventure needs those moments to make the joyous ones even better.

I have to mention the totally adorable illustrations, they are gorgeously cute and really made me smile.

If mew're a fan of Herms, and mew haven't read it, then I think mew really need to get a copy as soon as pawsible!

So anyhoo it's time fur book business, so mew know how us gurls get together and talk about stuff, well the other day Pandora and I were having a little tete a tete in the garden when I mentioned I'd got a supurr special book to review.

"I've got the best book effur this week!" I said.

"Really Amber, do tell me more?" Pandora replied in her strange, little foreign accent.

"Like OMC, mew just can't believe that when the P.A. was at BlogPaws she got to meet the real Herms from the Sherlock Herms series!" I gushed. "I just wish I'd been there... he's just so dreamy and handsome and.... he's ginger and white just like me... we've got so much in common... Oh my cod I would've just loved to have met him in purrson!"

"Amber," Pandora suddenly interjected. "Purrlease could mew speak more slowly as I can't understand a vurd mew are saying!"

I really didn't hear a wurd she was saying either as I floated away on my little cloud of happiness all wrapped up in my own little wurld of just Herms and me in my library with books, books and more books. Ah what a purrfect day that would be!

Thoroughly engrossed in my purrfect daydream as I hugged the book he'd sent JUST FUR ME, Smooch suddenly popped out of the play tunnel.

"Amber," he said. "Mew're really weird!"

"What!!!" I spluttered. "I'm not weird at all, in fact I'm the normal one of the furrmily!"

Smooch began to laugh. "Herms, oh Herms I luff mew Herms!!!!"

"Well," I replied rather huffily. "Mew have no appreciation of a great book, get back in your tunnel right this second." 

Aftur Smooch had vanished back into the tunnel of doom, I took it upon myself to have a little wash, as I didn't want getting dirty paw prints on my copy of the book! MOL

 And on that note I think it's time fur this weeks book, so let get to it...

This week on book reviews with Amber, obviously I'm sharing

Sherlock Herms Purranormal Mysteries 

The Case of the Dancing Ghosts

by

Kimberley Koz

Here's the book blurb:

My name is Sherlock Herms. It is my business to know what others don’t know. At least that’s what I hoped for once I got my paws wet as a private investigator. It was my first day on the job. The Wonderpurr Detective Agency had been open for business all of twenty minutes, but my phone hadn’t rung once. I flicked my floofy tail with impatience. How long would I have to wait before someone hired me to solve a caper? It all began when my author mom and I watched a documentary on famous detectives. She had decided to write mysteries. That made me nervous. I’m her mews, you see. I inspire her when she writes novels. But how could I inspire her when I know nothing about solving mysteries? If I fell down on the job, she might ask my arch-nemesis to be her mews. He’s a chunky orange tabby named Opie. He’s also my brother. With that in mind I paid close attention to the documentary. My favorites were Spade and Marlowe for their hardboiled detective lingo, and Sherlock Holmes for his use of logical reason to solve cases. Plus I liked his hat. Mom had just published two books in one year and was taking a much-needed break to grow more brain cells. I needed experience solving capers. Now. Before she started plotting her first mystery. But what if no one hired me? Ever! I’d be a washed-up has-been before the sun set on my first day as a hardboiled detective. I’d also be out of a job as a professional mews. I heard a knock. A thrill skittered through me. My first client had arrived! I opened the door to see my little sister. “What do you want, Dori?” “Mommy said I can play detective, too.” The fur bristled under my collar. “I’m not playing detective. I’m a hardboiled private investigator with grit in my blood. And no. You can’t play— I mean, be a detective, too.” I watched her eyes narrow. I’d seen that look before—right before I got a headache. She claims she can give migraines just by thinking one into your head and I believe her. But then her eyes filled with tears. Oh no. I’d rather have a migraine. “Mommy,” she yowled. “Hwermie won’t let me play detective.” “Let her play, Herms,” Mom called from her desk. “Please? I’m plotting.” Plotting! Oh no! Had she started mystery-writing without me? Meet Herman, a wise old floofy-tailed Turkish Angora, and his quirky tabby-kitten sister, Dori. When their first client hires them to solve a mystery in another town, they aren’t allowed to leave the backyard. No problem. Using a kitty play tunnel as a magical portal, Herman and Dori travel out of their yard—and out of this century—to take on their first big caper.

Guy's mew know on last weeks post  I said of the book I reviewed; the lack of kitty action did displease me somewhat.  This week there was sooooooo much kitty action it was unbelievable, and when I say mew need to read this, read it, mew will luff it.

It's got angst, action, a great plot and so much going on that mew can't not luff it.

Herm's is a hard-boiled detective with grit in his blood and his sisfur Dori is the comic relief throughout, it's a highly entertaining read and if mew're short on time it can be read in no time.  Plus mew can go back and read it again as like me, when mew find something as fun as this, it definitely needs a second and third read fur sure.

 Herm's also runs a weekly Purranormal series on his amazing blog, so if mew start to get withdrawals mew can satisfy them in a heartbeat.
