Lost interest. Characters and plot too intangible

Dear Author,

Invisible Kitties: A Feline Study of Fluid Mechanics or The Spurious Incident of the Cats in the Night-Time is a beautiful and whimsical love letter to our feline friends. They influence our lives in profound and mundane ways, bringing annoyance and joy, games of mystery and intrigue, and the occasional deposits of fluids or solids on the floor. But we love them, and this book is your love letter to your two warm, loving kitties. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Yours truly,
J.D. McCoughtry

Thank you, NetGalley and HarperVia Publishing, for the opportunity to read this e-arc.

Very cute, it's more a collection of short ramblings about fantastical situations involving cats, than something with narrative structure but nonetheless, it was quite enjoyable, and an easy book to carry around, should I find myself wanting to read only for a few minutes while out and about, as the chapters are only a few pages long each.

I've read a few books over the past few years by poets that I theorise approach writing a novel the same way they write poetry. It's not a style I get on well with, typically, but although this book fits that category, I think it works.

Yoyo clearly adores cats and this is a rather charming, surrealist meditation on cats. It's not entirely my cup of tea, but I can appreciate what she's done here - it's very cute and makes for an enjoyable light read :)
