The Cat Who Ate Danish Modern

Title: The Cat Who Ate Danish Modern
Author: Lilian Jackson Braun
Rating: Three Guitars

Sizzilin' Summary:
Jim Qwilleran's got a new job... he has to publish a magazine for the Fluxion about interior decorating! And he has no experience! But things are going to get crazy... when the house that's in the first edition of the magazine is robbed the day right after the magazine came out! Talk about bad rep!
Qwilleran and Koko is going to have to get to the bottom of this before things get even worse... and deadly!

Rockin' Reviews:
This was not Mrs. Braun's best. #2 of the Cat Who series wasn't terrible, but it didn't grab you. It was relax-full (sp?). The mystery wasn't very well-done, though things made sense in the end. It was well-written, but it's not going to be my favorite.
But there's one thing I was very impressed on. I was also impressed at it when Diane Duane did it in her first So You Want To Be A Wizard book. There was a loose end that could have been forgotten, and it was wrapped up. Very well-done!
This was only a so-so book, so maybe get it if you want the next book in this series and it's at least semi-cheap. Note, however, this book introduces Yum Yum in the end, so you might want it if you want to meet her for the first time!
