Quiz: Which Off-The-Beaten-Path Cat Book Should You Read?
Cats are all over literature, whether they feature prominently or peripherally or just pop in. And when writers incorporate cats into their works, they’re usually full of personality. After all, when have you ever met a cat that lacked idiosyncrasies?
While I could give you classic cats-in-literature recommendations like Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland or The Master and Margarita, I figured it might be more fun to have some relatively recent recommendations. I mean, cats never go out of style, so they’re always pawing their way into books.
Whether you’re in the mood for a feisty feline or a cuddly kitty, I hope this quiz will help you find your purr-fect protagonist. There’s a little bit for every kind of reader here, from mysteries to road trips and even graphic novels.
So if you’re craving a book that has at least one memorable cat in it, this is the quiz for you! (If you’d rather find out what famous feline you’re most like, take this quiz on which literary cat you are instead!)
