My personal impressions & opinions about the story at the beginning, Novella #1 aka
"Lieutenant Mayhew's Catastrophe" as told to us by Author Emily Larkin.
Please, take a few moments looking back to several of your worse days ever!!! And isn't it ridiculous about the myriad of things that may possibly go sideways in just a day? You're starting to remember about when anything and everything that could possibly go wrong —DID! If you drive any distance regularly you have just begun seeing that it's placing undue stress on your vehicle and you need to take it in so diagnostics may be run. Or how about the day when you got a flat tire & needed the car moved over into the break-down lane and had to wave for help to do so! All while in your fresh from the Dry Cleaners dress/suit combined with new shoes that won't give you any traction. Then another day you remember that oil & water don't mix and that just the drizzle & fog has caused the oil to the road's top surface. And yet, about only 1/2 of the other drivers seem to recall that fact and there are those who are zipping around you and the rest of those who are cautious.
Or when you, as a big city dweller, and so many others are at the mercy of "Public Transportation". Encompassing Buses, the Subway and/or above-ground Trolley systems or the actual Railroad itself. Any or all of whom are subject to delays. Whatever the cause, you are now late for your work, or an appointment, a committee meeting, interview or presentation. Then someone hurrying by you literally "runs-into" you and now you're walking with a large wet stain on your clothes!
Could this day become even worse?? So you take a few brief moments to assess what the atmosphere is like. You quickly realize that the ambiance seems as though it may ignite at any time. Now, you too feel the terrible tension which furrows your brow and leaves you on edge. Then you take a deep breath and firmly resolve this will not shake either your confidence or equilibrium.
And you remind yourself that this is "TGIF" before a mandatory national 3-day weekend. You're expecting some of your best friends visiting and staying a few days. You had the foresight to already have two(2) vacation days approved for next Tuesday & Wednesday. The weather is now superb and you inwardly laugh at yourself because you have fantabulously tremendous recent personal news that's known only to you and one(1) other. The big reveal is: That both of you are "soul mates" with a connection that constantly hums across the time you're apart and is simply electric and undeniable together. Neither of you had been certain this sense of completion really was attainable even while in depths of your heart and soul you knew it was possible. You truly "cherish each other" while realizing what a rare & precious gift you are receiving!I
And now my feelings and remarks concerning the 2nd story in this small tome, Novella #2 aka
"Catnip & Kisses" as penned by Author Grace Burrowes:
Grace has actually managed to write the most "un-formulaic" tale I've had the pleasure to "purr"use! What I will tell you now is "meow"r about it. For instance, the way your heart will "cat"ch itself on this delightful "tail"! And how you won't have a "lick" of trouble enjoying this tiny tome. Here are some small "bit"s of information as follows: An amateur volunteer Librarian meets a "curious"ly fanciful a"tip"ical Scholar of scientific "purr"suits! You'll wish to "scoop"-up this hysterically humorous "tidbit" of a "hiss"torically themed "yarn".
Particularly with the sudden "nip" in this autumnal air. I almost "cat"erwauled when this perfect set of novellas reached their conclusions. In this case I wanted them both to carry-on for a much "fur"ther time than when the official, "The End" was reached!
P.S. I ask y'all to please allow this quirky older reviewer a bit of latitude for these tongue-in-cheek reviews.
