Welcome To
With Amber ~ The Best Library Kitty in the entire Mewton~Clawson Parish.
*waves paw*
Hello gorgeous library guests and welcome to my private library.
This week I've been enjoying plenty of snuggles on my blanky as it's been a little cold some days... how's the weather been where mew are?
I hope mew're all staying safe and are still evading this eveel virus. The confirmed cases in Nottinghamshire are now at 298 [Thursday pm], up 96 from 202 yesterday. And cases are rising exponentially all over the country; apparently according to experts here, they say the peak in the UK will start on Monday 6th through to approx 30th April, so its batten down the hatches and stay the fluff away from everyone.
All incoming deliveries to BBHQ are being dropped in the trolley at the gate, and then taken for full decontamination before they even enter the house. The P.A and dad are going nowhere other than a walk after dark, when there's absolutely no one else about.
The wurld is a really scary place right now!
Stay safe everypawdy.

This week I'm sharing
The Star-Spun Web
by
Sinead O'Hart
Here's A Small Snippet of the Book Blurb:
With her passion for scientific experimentation and her pet tarantula Violet, Tess de Sousa is no ordinary orphan. When a stranger shows up at Ackerbee's Home for Lost and Foundlings, claiming to be a distant relative come to adopt her, Tess hopes to find some answers to her mysterious origins.

This is another book from Melvyn's Top Ten list at the beginning of the month, and I must say it's a fab read. I know I'm asleep in the pic above but even the most hardened library cat like myself needs to nap! MOL
Anyhoo, let's get back to the book; it has a great plot, interesting characters which develop nicely, the pace rattles along at good speed with plenty of mystery and intrigue along the way. There's some sciency parallel world stuff, token bad buys and a rather marvellous pet tarantula called Violet.
It has all the ingredients for a really fun, page-turning read, and the burning question is, would I recommend to mew? Of course I would, it's great and would be purrfect to while away a few hours during the lockdown.
Try it, I'm sure mew won't be disappointed.
