How to Tell if Your Cat is Plotting to Kill You by Matthew Inman (The Oatmeal) will make any cat owner laugh and then pause with concern as they tally up the number of “warning signs” their cat actually displays. These “warning signs” include: Excessive shoveling of kitty litter (practice for burying bodies), sleeping on your electronics (trying to disrupt all communications to the outside world), or hiding in dark places and watching you (this is to study you in your natural habitat). I enjoyed most of the comics, laughing out loud at some of them, and definitely recommend this book to anyone that is a fan of cats.
From Goodreads: “If your cat is kneading you, that’s not a sign of affection. Your cat is actually checking your internal organs for weakness. If your cat brings you a dead animal, this isn’t a gift. It’s a warning. How to Tell If Your Cat Is Plotting to Kill You is an offering of cat comics, facts, and instructional guides from the creative wonderland at TheOatmeal.com.”
“Everyone knows that timing is everything. But we don’t know much about timing itself. Our lives are a never-ending stream of “when” decisions: when to start a business, schedule a class, get serious about a person. Yet we make those decisions based on intuition and guesswork. Drawing on a rich trove of research from psychology, biology, and economics, Pink reveals how best to live, work, and succeed. ”
“The streets of San Francisco would be lined with hardcovers if rare book expert Brooklyn Wainwright had her way. And her mentor wouldn’t be lying in a pool of his own blood on the eve of a celebration for his latest book restoration. With his final breath he leaves Brooklyn a cryptic message, and gives her a priceless and supposedly cursed copy of Goethe’s Faust for safekeeping.”
