The Meaning of Life...From a Cat

-
I recently had just finished What My Cat Has Taught Me About Life by Niki Anderson; and while reading this book about cats and what they can teach us, I came up with the idea for this blog post. Now, I am in no way a trained professional in psychology, like Frasier Crane(HA!), nor do I know what the meaning of life is. I was just interested in the idea of a variety of different cats teaching others alike and unlike them lessons and different ways to view life arranging from the importance of individuality to the idea of showing people what you are feeling.
The thing with finding out what the meaning of life is is that everyone's life is different so everyone's meaning and mission is different than that to a man walking down the street in a neighborhood or a woman working on an article for a newspaper.
Also, since this whole blog article started out with a book, I might as well tell some of my feelings on the subjects What My Cat Has Taught Me About Life. To start off, I do not usually read self-help books or books that talk about meditations and cliché tips to make one's life better. I knew going into this book I would not soak up any of the recommended tips and tricks to use in my daily life to make it better. It is not me to do any of that since I get all my knowledge of themes in fiction books. I did enjoy reading the different stories of different cats unknowingly coming together to write a book. I really enjoy any book with stories of cats and their owners. I always will enjoy books about cats learning lessons from getting rid of one of their nine lives on a risk and climbing a tree to an endless height, waiting to be saved from a firefighter or a family member.
Love,

Ten Enticing "One Day" Novels with INCREDIBLE Pacing and That Caused Me to Forget the World Around Me

Every Tuesday, Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl hosts Top Ten Tuesday, a series of posts created to appreciate lists of books and reading-related culture. The theme changes every week and is chosen by Jana. Come join our fangirl/boy craziness by naming your top ten favorite short reads in the comments or in your very own blog/social media post! Books and their stories, no matter the length, are extremely attractive. After a long day of work or school, it's only necessary to curl up on the couch and read a fraction of a story before sleeping the night away. However, some nights, the energy to finish a whole book readily flows in your veins and is fueled from the adrenaline of the right story. It's the nail-biting adventure novel with the cliffhanger chapters or the horrific fantasy giving goosebumps or the short king novellas. Whichever book floats your metaphorical boat, I have curated a list to cater to the interests of most readers. Ten genres is definitely not enough to cover...

Four Books I Recently Got in the Mail That Caused Me to Scream

-

Over the course of my life, books have always been a central part. This could be due to my mom being an advocate for reading or due to the several packages of books that come to my house at random times of the week. Every time a package appears on my doorstep, I squeal. My family says I outright scream bloody murder, but I think I just squeal loudly every time I see a shiny new book come into my hungry arms. Due to my past, I have followed my mom's footsteps and have been stacking my shelves with tons of books. Thanks to Tynga at Tynga's Reviews  who hosts Stacking the Shelves, all the bookworms, that turn into bookdragons later in life, have the ability to share their recent book mail. Today, as it is Saturday, I am sharing the four books I have gotten within the past month, which hopefully will make Four wish that he had some Dauntless cake. Let's get into destroying some perfectly good packaging! 1. The War Outside by Monica Hesse I am working with the people...

Dear All in the Book Community, To introduce myself, I am Nicole, or am known as newbookcats on the line, and I run my blog NewBookCatsREADS. Most likely, you have never heard of a book and cat getting along unless if the cat is allowed to play with the pages; however, on my blog, anyone who can appreciate the luxurious smell of a book or the tiniest sound you hear when you flip a page is my friend. I might dwell on the great smell of books for a while, but who can keep away from the sweet smell of a new or old book? Anyway, the book community has become a part of me; therefore, I need to give thanks to it through a letter listing ten reasons why I believe the book community is one of the best ones in the world. Gather your tissues and enjoy the list because books are a few of my favorite things! *imagine I have Julie Andrews' voice for just a minute* 10 Reasons Why the Book Community is Awesome: 1. You can grow in this community. I have only been a book blogger...
