Her mother could have helped the cat before letting he daughter out of the locked closet, but she opened the door just in time for Selina to witness its death. Even though it was the Neanderthal that physically abused Selina, her mother is equally responsible for not saying anything. She actually has the nerve to tell Selina SHE'S the one making things more difficult. It was terrible.

I think I've found an app that makes them tolerable, but I'd rather avoid them if I can. <br /><br />I really dislike books with animal sacrifices, neglect, death, etc. Like you said, it sticks with you. I also feel like those things can be avoided in books. Yes, I know things like that happen every day, but I don't want to read about it. :(Lindsi https://www.blogger.com/profile/13480991226741687503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15824987442107017.post-14337011196405549572019-05-08T13:08:45.513-04:002019-05-08T13:08:45.513-04:00I got an email to get a pfd of this book to review...I got an email to get a pfd of this book to review a while back, but I don't do pdfs, so I declined. I had no clue it was a graphic novel (comic?). I'm glad I didn't read it because animal abuse images take a long time for me to shake off.

Studios). There was recently a Batman and TMNT crossover, which was interesting. I love it when random comics are combined! Catwoman is one I'm familiar with, even though I know who she is, but I have enjoyed this author previously. I've noticed a lot of YA authors are transitioning into graphic novels and comics.

People that hurt animals... it's just not something I want to read about. I know it was probably a turning point in Catwoman's life, but there had to be an alternative.

Why was his help less welcome than Ojo's? They both offered her friendship, a place to stay, food. She's also known Bruce for years, and they used to be good friends. He didn't want anything from her, didn't expect her to help with heists, but genuinely wanted to help. She could have stayed in one of his many guest rooms, and still maintained her independence. Really, I think they would both have benefited from having her there.<br /><br />I'm happy you're still curious and want to read it! It was meh for me, but there were aspects that I liked. You'll have to pop back over and let me know what you think after you read it! :)Lindsi https://www.blogger.com/profile/13480991226741687503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15824987442107017.post-12098818542542092362019-05-07T19:33:10.491-04:002019-05-07T19:33:10.491-04:00I think most people feel meh about this story.

I think she rather be in control given her lack of control in her own home and especially with men. I still want to read it since I never get the chance to read a Catwoman book. I'm also curious since it has such mixed reviews. I might end up hating it but it doesn't kill the curiosity in me.
