Lila Danisa
Ah that was so heartwarming yet bittersweet at the same time 🥹
The story started with two (chaotic) British families departure to Greece for holiday during COVID-19 pandemic. Yeah, you read it right, they indeed chose the best time to spend their vacation. Each of the family members was chaotically funny. So many names to remember but somehow they had personalities to differentiate one and another.
They went to an island in Greece expecting so many cute cats but the reality was kinda disappointed. When they finally saw cute cats, that where the story of rescuing them began.
I loved that this book also has cats POV. It was refreshing to read how the cats think and somehow it made sense like I knew the cats would think exactly like that.
I said that this book is bittersweet because how realistic the story and the ending were. Especially after I read that this book based on the author personal experience of rescuing cats from the Greece to England.
Though this book mainly advertised for middle-graders, I myself needed time to get used to the writing style. It might because I have not read many middle-grade books and not familiar with the style. Aside from that, I actually enjoyed this book. Such as refreshing reading experience!
Thank you to Jane Lightbourne, BooksGoSocial, and NetGalley for the ARC.
p.s. Not important but I was kinda happy that one of the cats has the same name like mine, Lila 😅 And I loved that Lila the cat was the calm and rational one.
