I had picked up 3 The Cat Who...books at one time and whizzed through all of them quickly. The one I posted about last time was written in (I think) 2007. After zooming through two more-The Cat Who Talked To Ghosts(1990), and The Cat Who Robbed a Bank(2000), I have, unfortunately, come to the conclusion that the series should have ended before 2007. While still only mildly amusing, the earlier ones are worth a couple of hours of mindless entertainment, the last one was not.

There's a series of The Cat Who...books. Usually charming, low-key, mildly witty,with a non-threatening, easy to solve mystery. Very much of the cozy, not a lot happens variety but familiar and a fun, easy, mindless read. However, I just finished The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers and I'm afraid it took mindless too far. It bordered on boring. Oh well, it was a cute series while it lasted.

First Offense by Nancy Taylor Rosenberg-Not terrible, not terrific. Probably won't pick up another one by this author. It couldn't decide if it was a romance gone astray or a murder mystery.
