It turns out book titles are incredibly fragile. Change just one word and suddenly you’ve got an entirely different book. Sometimes a worse one. Sometimes a much better one.
This week, my brain decided that the answer to everything was cats. So I took a handful of my most recent reads and the first few books on my TBR, swapped in one extremely important word, and let chaos reign.
Recently Read, but Make It Cat
The Quiet Neighbor → The Cat Neighbor
Still quiet. Still watching. Still judging.
After Life → Cat Life
An exploration of existence, naps, and existential stares into the void. You have no idea how difficult this is.
Rings of Fate → Cats of Fate
LOL. Honestly, no notes.
Singing to the Sun → Singing to the Cat
A devotional act that is acknowledged by the wise, ignored at your own peril.
A Traitorous Heart → A Traitorous Cat
You trusted them. You were wrong.
On My TBR, Now Featuring Cats
Among Serpents → Among Cats
Possibly safer. Possibly not. Did you give them treats?
Another Man in the Street → Another Cat in the Street
You do not live here. They do.
Breath of the Dragon → Breath of the Cat
Proceed with caution. May contain heavy scent of fish.
Confidential → Catfidential
Highly classified. Immediately knocked off the desk.
Darkmotherland → Darkmothercat
Powerful. Mysterious. Omniscient.
Conclusion: Cats improve literature across all genres. This is just science now.
Yes, I’m posting a picture of my cat with this. Consider her a collaborator.
Happy Friday.
