“The Travelling Cat Chronicles” follows a cat and his human through the adoption of the cat and the subsequent attempts to re-home the cat due to unforeseen circumstances (the revelation of which is part of the story). The pair travel Japan together visiting old friends, and each stop includes a retelling of the history of the friends. It is a whimsical, bittersweet story displaying the beauty of friendships, good memories, and quirky cats. This is one of those books that is a journey more than a story, and you just sit back and leisurely walk through it. The main human character’s story hit too close to home to say I 100% liked it, but it is a unique book.
Three words that describe this book: thoughtful, descriptive, big-hearted
