This is Matty. When I got up in the morning he would immediately take my warm spot in the bed. He was a gentle giant of a cuddle monster who lived to be nearly twenty.
Large orange cat cuddled up under the blankets on a bed, with his head on the pillow. Gentle giant of a cat, a heat seeking missile, emitter of thunder purrs.

Feel good books. Any genre. I will start with this one. Where simple decency and kindness become the main character’s super powers.

Why are ethics questions always like “ Is it ethical to steal bread to feed your starving family?” And not “ Is it ethical to hoard bread when families are starving?”

This is Matty. We had him for eighteen years. He was a gentle giant and loved being warm. Very quirky but very sweet orange kitty.
A large orange cat is all warm and snuggly under the blankets in a human bed with his head out on the pillow. The bed has Christmas sheets and blankets.

Look what just landed on my phone via the kindle app. 😀. Anymore I read a lot of cozy fantasy as opposed to grim dark fantasy. Our real world is too grim and dark. Need to escape it.
Cover of Brigands and Breadknives by Travis Baldree. It’s the third book in a series of cozy fantasies. The cover art shows what looks like a small Group of travelers, with a horse and the cart or wagon it pulls, some books, a mouse girl, some sort of warrior looking person, and a green scarecrow looking person who has lots of teeth.
