My Nails and My Book Review - Cat About Town by Cate Conte

**NetGalley**

Title: Cat About Town

Series: Cat Cafe Mystery #1

Author: Cate Conte

Goodreads Summary: The first novel in a frisky new mystery series set in a small New England town, where an unlikely citizen is called in to solve the purrfect crime. . .

Maddie James has arrived in Daybreak Island, just off the coast of Massachusetts, eager to settle down and start her own business―and maybe even fall in love. When a stray orange tabby pounces into her life, she’s inspired to open a cat café. But little does Maddie know that she’s in for something a lot more catastrophic when her new furry companion finds the dead body of the town bully. Now all eyes are on Maddie: Who is this crazy cat-whisperer lady who’s come to town? If pet-hair-maintenance and crime-fighting weren’t keeping her busy enough, Maddie now has not one but two eligible bachelors who think she’s the cat’s pajamas . . . and will do anything to win her heart. But how can she even think about happily-ever-after while a killer remains on the loose―and on her path?

My Review: **I voluntarily read this ARC**

I really enjoyed this book. The mystery was great, and I loved the ending. It did start out a bit sad and slow, but the pacing did pick up pretty quickly.

My Manicure: I went for the easy inspiration this time. I started with Zoya Alicia to add a bit of glitz. Then I stamped the cat with QA40 and Bundle Monster Straight Up Black. Cute, but simple.
