Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are God. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are God.

The book is pretty addictive. The switching of perspectives is keeping me on my toes as both Nick and Amy seem to be unreliable narrators.

So far, it is so well written and reading two different sides of a story is very thrilling I must say. I’m wondering, who is is telling the truth between Amy and Nick? I can’t wait to find out.

I have a couple of hundred books stored in boxes in the garage, but I have read those. I also gave away that many to charity shops some years ago, but I like to keep the nice hardback editions. (For some reason…)

LOL, that quote is just spot on!! :’) My cat also seems to think that everything I use, well, I’m actually just borrowing it from him. He makes this clear occasionally by taking it back while I’m using the particular item. Like with my laptop right now while I’m trying to type ;).
