story line getting worn out

I love the Cat Who books, great light reading. But, the story line is getting repeative and less interesting to read. Seems to spend way too much time repeating the the same descriptions of people and event that are in all books.

Another Lillian Jackson Braun Winner

One of the Best Cat Who Books Written. I am a real fan of Lillian Jackson Braun. The Cat Who Went Up the Creek will entertain all mystery lovers. An Extra Treat for Cat Lovers that love Mysteries. As usual Quill and Koko are delightful. It is like curling up with an old friend, when you open the book.

Time for another visit to Moose County

This is the 24th installment of the continuing adventures of Qwill and friends. The action again is in Moose County, this time centering for most of the book on the newly opened Nutcracker Inn out on Black Creek. The mysteries and bodies begin pile up until Koko once again points Qwill in the right direction.As always with this series the mysteries are secondary to the characters. Qwill and his cats are like old friends to fans of the series. His on-going relationships with Polly and other friends in Moose County are what keep people looking for the next book. By now most fans could draw a map of Moose county and describe many of its residents. This book, like the others in the series, is not meant to be a challenging puzzle to figure out but is instead and pleasant read for a quiet weekend. There is no profanity, 'adult situations', or graphic violence.

another charming read

Lilian Jackson Braun has come through again, with a light and charming tale of Moose County, "north of everywhere." Polly, the chief woman in Quill's life, is absent on a trip, although a frequent correspondent by postcard, in this novel. No romantic interest arises to take her place, so Quill and the two Siamese cats are the principal characters as they unravel a mystery involving two murders, greed, and local history. Highly recommended to take your mind off any real-life troubles!

One of the best

I found this most recent addition to the Braun mystery series very enjoyable. It starts out as an easy read then gets more exciting and busy near the end. I found that once I got to the last 1/3 or the book that I didn't want to put it down as there was too much going on. It made for a great read on a cool winter week-end. Keep them coming Ms. Braun. I'm always interested in what the two cats and Mr. Q will be doing next.
