Book Review of The Bachelor's Cat: A Love Story

The Bachelor's Cat: A Love Story
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 1


in short : a beautiful story that is beautifully written. to be more expansive : this is a gorgeous tale of love and self discovery, told with lush prose and a sense of humor. the bachelor is sensitive, lost, wildly romantic, and secretly detached. in caring for an orphaned cat he learns the meaning of love, loyalty and friendship. the woman he doesn't dare love is kind, caring, available and Not His Type : overweight, older, direct. the girlfriend he can't forget is gorgeous, cunning and self-absorbed. the confusion that pulls him in two different directions is poignant and altogether. this is a sweet novel about separating the glitz from the gold. here is an unforgettable line from the book to whet your appetite :

"...it was as if she had taken her skills at navigating the human soul and signed aboard a pirate ship with them."
