"The Devious Book for Cats: A Parody" by Fluffy & Bonkers

This book is borrowed from Tammy P. and is written by cats for cats.  It has advice on lots of topics like cardboard boxes, catnip, kitty litter, grooming, vacuum cleaners, and my favorite, crazy cat ladies.  There are also plenty of devious instructions in chapters like "Getting Away With It," "Secrets of Daredevil Cats," "The Pros and Cons of Being Sullen," and "Toying With Allergy Sufferers."  It's a good thing cats can't read or we would all be in big trouble!  224 pages.

My Lady Jane by Cynthia Hand

Summary: A hilarious re-telling of the 9-day ruling of Lady Jane Grey over the English monarchy. 

I loooooove this book! Some of the jokes and imagery were hilarious! 

My Lady Jane is a refreshing and fun take on historical fiction. It's from the view of 3 protagonists: King Edward, Jane Grey, and Jane's arranged Gifford Dudley. It changes the history and adds some happily ever after to a quite tragic real-life story.
