This was a charming and delightful read, perfect for someone whose favorite show is “If These Walls Could Talk” except the narrator is an adorably precocious Victorian ghost cat
I think someone who is familiar with or is from Edinburgh or just Scotland in general would love this. But for me, being wholly unfamiliar with the city, had a hard time connecting with the setting and characters. It was fun to piece together the different moments in history, and the footnotes were a fun touch.
Overall a cozy time, and a fun exercise in what would sweet Walter be up to as a ghost cat?
