I Am a Cat

I feel bad to give such a low rating. I really feel that I was just the wrong audience and so couldn't appreciate what it had to offer. I picked it up randomly in the library and thought that as a lover of cats, it would be a good read. But it seems you also might need to have a deep understanding and appreciation of Japanese culture, especially during the Meiji era. I found every part of it too long. The conversations of the people the cat observed as well as the thoughts and opinions of the cat himself. I kept going because I read that each book is better than the last, but sadly that was only the case for me because it meant I was closer to finishing it. Im very sure for the right reader this book is wonderful in many ways. I'm just not one of those readers. And as for the ending.....
