Curiosity Thrilled the Cat by Sofie Kelly

The most vanilla protagonist doing the most vanilla things in the most vanilla town. A mysterious death leads to a pretty vanilla detective story.

But it works. I actually found it really enjoyable. I didn't think I would early on but I stuck with it long enough that it got good.

Listening to audio book. A nice light-hearted murder mystery with a couple of cats helping a librarian. Cats and books are always good together. I enjoyed the characters and the story line. I look forward to listening to book 2 in the series.

I kept meaning to start this series and I'm so glad I did. It's sweet and quirky and a great cozy mystery. Kathleen is trying to update the local library and a composer who is in town for a Summer music festival ends up dead. There are also a series of accidents that seem to be targeting Kathleen. Thank heavens she has her magical cats to help her get to the bottom of it all.

I adored these cats. Owen is addicted to catnip and Hercules loves to dance to Barry Manilow. They also have a habit of not staying where she puts them.

The town is cozy, the characters are interesting and the cats are adorable. What more could you ask for? Suspend your disbelief in magical pets and check it out.
