Book Description:
After years of vibrant city life in San Francisco, Lonnie Hull DuPont
reluctantly trades her three-room apartment on Telegraph Hill for a farmhouse
in Michigan. She immediately misses the rhythm and the pace of the city, and
the isolation of country living has her longing for something more.
Enter Kit Kat, an obsessive-compulsive tortoiseshell, and Lucy, a playful Russian Blue who can nail a bat right out of the air. These stray cats arrive a year apart and each ask to move into the farmhouse--and ultimately DuPont's heart. From the hysterical process of getting two strange cats to like each other to the exciting years of watching those cats thrive--and inspire DuPont in the process--this book is the heartwarming story of how one woman's world would never be the same.

My Review:
Kit Kat & Lucy is a delightful
read about two sweet creatures who brought joy to their owners in a time of
transition. In the book, I learned of Lonnie Hull DuPont's struggles in life. I
loved how she found peace though these sweet creatures. Another wonderful aspect
of the book is her relationship with her husband. Their marriage is a
centerpiece as they snuggle into their new home many states away from where
they met. Reading Lonnie's writing, left me feeling like I was reading a letter
from a friend. I can honestly say, I smiled a great deal and even laughed out
loud a few times. If you love animals, especially cats, you'll enjoy the antics
of Kit Kat & Lucy. I can easily give this book five stars.
I received this book in exchange for a fair review.
