And finally, we come to the cat with the densest fur, the roundest eyes and the flattest head. 👀 With low-set ears built to peer over rocks and a face that looks how we feel, there’s no way to score the Pallas’s cat any less than 1000/10.

Library purchases are purchases. They pay the press. The press counts them towards advances and royalties. And (gasp) the book is in a library!! It’s wonderful and no one should ever feel bad about getting a book through a library instead of buying it.
