Feeling a Bit Silly
Sep. 27th, 2005 04:55 pmWhen you see this on your flist, quote the most obscure cultural production you consider yourself a fan of. Pimp it mightily, and spread the insanity.
As Qwilleran approached the barn he could hear the cats' yowling welcome, anf that brought to mind another question: On the night of the party, when Koko stared so intently at VanBrook's head, was the cat sensing a questionable operator? A felonious mentality? Farfetched as the idea might seem, it was not beyond the capabilities of that remarkable animal.
On the other hand, Qwilleran had to admit, Koko might have been staring at hair that he recognized as false.
--Lillian Jackson Braun, The Cat Who Knew a Cardinal
Cat Who... books are some of my favorite mysteries. The writing is smart, funny, and tight, and the characters are mostly adorable. Most take place in the town of Pickaxe, 400 miles north of everywhere, which is mythically located in the UP of Michigan, but reminds me quite a lot of Minnesota's small towns on Superior's north shore. I highly recommend the entire series.
