Book Review of The Cat Who'll Live Forever : The Final Adventures of Norton, the Perfect Cat, and His Imperfect Human

reviewed on + 147 more book reviews


I read the Norton series in order. I gave Book 1 three stars, Book 2 two. The third book is a lot harder for me to rate. I read the last book about a year or so ago. I cried at the end. I didn't write a review then because I was uncertain how to rate it. I was inclined to give it five stars--not because the entire book was worthy of five stars but because the last couple chapters made up for the rest of the book. Recently, I reread the last couple chapters--starting right around when Norton first became ill until he died. Once again I cried. Although I am still unsure of what rating this book should get, I'm giving it five stars because of how it affected me emotionally.
