Books like this make me glad I'm a reader because it was such fun to read! Creative and witty, with just the right amount of action and tension. Charlie is a fantastic protagonist, decent and outwardly semi-clueless but also surprisingly savvy. And I'll never look at the cat distribution system in the same way again! Not my usual read but highly recommend!
