Cat Sleuth Challenge


I thought of having a Midnight Louie challenge until I remember there was a reason I stopped reading the books. Overload! No way could I read 21 of them in 12, or even 18 months. I still want to read them and then it hit me. Cat Sleuths! I love reading books with cats as sleuths and checking out cozy-mystery.com for another challenge reminded me that I own several that haven't seen the light of day in ages.

I've set up a blog just for this challenge, so click over and check it out.
