Hello! Frank the charming, witty library cat, here with a post for you to savor. Thanks to my buddy, Sebastian for doing the typing, as I am lacking the ability to tap on the keyboard with any accuracy. Paws, you know.

Some of you have asked me to tell you about a typical day in my life. I’d like to start by saying there is no such thing as typical for this anything-but-typical cat. Every day is an adventure. Particularly book journey days.

Oh! You don’t know what book journey days are? Let me enlighten you.

My library is filled to the brim with thousands of cozy mystery books. Not just your garden variety books, oh no. These are enchanted volumes. They are invitations to another world, so to speak. Portals. Beam me up, Scotty, as Captain Kirk would say.

Every month or two my book club chooses a book to explore. A mystery to solve. An adventure to experience. With a twirl of a magic globe and a few sparkles and a room full of fog, we are transported inside the story.

We’ve been around, you might say! A cruise ship to Hawaii. A jaunt to the Old Wild West. A visit to an enchanted palace inhabited by sprites. A trek to a desert mansion where we found a magic lamp that had … oh. I best not expose any spoilers lest you wish to take that journey yourself.

While the locations are a blast of a good time, the murder mysteries we solve can be dicey. But we must solve the mystery and reach the end to escape the pages. It never ceases to get my adrenaline flowing!

So, as I said, there is no such thing as a typical day in my whirlwind life as a cat who lives in an enchanted library.

When this club selects a book, magic happens!

This book club does more than read their books – they are absorbed into them to become the amateur sleuths! In order to leave the book, they must solve the mystery and reach The End.

In this journey they travel to The Golden Island Wellness Retreat for yoga, meditation, workshops, and spa treatments. They’ll bond with nature and improve their spiritual wellbeing. They’ll find their inner peace – and a dead body, of course.

Graduates from an acting college have gathered at the retreat for their ten-year reunion. Old friends reconnect, but apparently, so have old enemies. The book club must evaluate the attendees to determine whose baggage has led to murder.
