“I found that I struggled with a lot of this book. I think it was mainly because I find it hard to relate to Charlie.”
~ Under the Covers

Miranda James is back with another installment in the Cat in the Stacks series. THE PAWFUL TRUTH is the eleventh book in the series. Now, for me, I have only read one other book in the series, but it’s definitely enough for me to get a feel of the author’s writing style.

I definitely think this series has a slower and more mature pace than some of the other Cozy Mysteries out there and so, I do think I have to be in a certain mood for it. THE PAWFUL TRUTH has Charlie going back to school, so it’s a little bit of a different feel to it. The tension and conflict is definitely there from the very beginning, but I found that I struggled with a lot of this book. I think it was mainly because I find it hard to relate to Charlie. His personality is a bit more reserved than I would like, but it is more of a departure from the curious amateur sleuths you find in most books.

That being said, I’m not sure if I will continue with this series. However, if you’re a fan of Lea Wait’s Needlepoint series, then you may find that this series is enough for you.

  1. I haven’t read this series but it it is difficult when the reader can’t connect with the main character.
