Mystery Cats

Mystery Cats is many short story/mysteries.I found these series of stories very interesting. Some of the stories are really good while others are just ok. Many of the stories include ghosts, murder, theft and other things that make their stories good. I really liked The Thief of the Mafia Cat. It's a story about a thief who uses his mind to figure out a very clever way to steal a heavily guarded cat. The other one I liked was Miss Paisley's Cat. It is a story about a old lady who revenges her cat's murder. The Lady Who Wore Black is another one of my favorties. It is a story about a cat who seeks to revenge her owner's death. Another one I really liked was The Old Grey Cat. This one is about a very strange girl and her stranger friend. I would suggest this book to ages 12 and up. I found myself confused at times. Also some of the stories in this book are a bit troubling. If you read this book and liked it there is another book called More Mystery Cats. I really enjoyed this book and would suggest it to any one who likes mysteries novels or cats. Out of 5 I give this book a 4.
