Trigger Warnings for Book of Purrs: N/A

Book of Purrs: Everyday Thoughts from your Feline Friends by Luis Coelho is a cute collection of purring nothings. This book compiles Coelho's delightful online comics about our feline companions. Throughout, Coelho also inputs uplifting quotes and funny quips.

Book of Purrs: Everyday Thoughts from your Feline Friends is great for what it is. This book is a compilation, not a series of interconnected comic strips. As a write this with my cat in my lap, I must say so much of what Coelho has put in Book of Purrs is accurate. This being said, some of the multi-panel comics have the same exact drawing in each of them. It feels like Coelho didn't put as much effort into those as the ones that show more expression.

Overall, this was cute. It wasn't a game-changer, it wasn't earth-shattering, but it was cute. Thank you to Luis Coelho, Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an advanced reader copy of this book. Official release date for Book of Purrs: Everyday Thoughts from your Feline Friends by Luis Coelho is set for October 22nd, 2024.

The Book of Purrs is a cute fun comic that cat lovers will thoroughly enjoy! Full of laughs this book offers lots to love! Highly recommended!

I loved this with my whole heart. The art is so cute. I LOVE CATS.
The book had quotes that were silly but some that actually made me think and needed to read atleast once.

Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this fun book -- I loved it so much I immediately went to my account and added it to my shopping list and my wish list so I could get copies for myself and as gifts. I don't normally recommend damaging books, but I would love to decorate my work area with some of the best inspirational pages, and maybe even rotate them on a regular basis. I like being able to see positive notes while I work, and there are so many funny, wise, inspirational, and naughty examples here. You don't have to be a cat lover to think this book is funny and positive.

A cute book for cat lovers or anyone who wants some feel good comics. This book is very sweet and funny with an aim to cheer you up with its cute rhymes and cuter cat images. I really liked the sort of affirmations/reminders in each comic, though some felt a little repetitive. And mostly I enjoyed the drawings of the adorable cats

“Existing can be a lot of work”

It is a humorous compilation of many cats, many wise but sometimes also just very cat-related things. I quite enjoyed the bits (and bites) at parts this book brought. Between the very feline things, you can find a lot of quotes which can build you up again, to help you get a bit happier. As it even says “Existing can be a lot of work” but this book tries (and for succeeds) in making it a bit of an easier job to manage.

This book is filled with cat thoughts - some goofy and silly, some insightful and sweet. I laughed at many of them and awww-ed over many.

This book would make a great gift for a cat lover or a cute coffee table book.

This book was absolutely delightful. I have seen his work before and was so excited to read this. I would definitely gift this to people in my life who need an uplifting message and love cats and will certainly recommend this to others.

It is short, very sweet, and I found myself pausing on specific pages that resonated with me or those I love. A couple of pages even had me tearing up a) because I love cats and b) I have always loved cats and c) I sometimes have existential crises about my cat's life span. The art is darling and the messages are poignant.

Thanks Net Galley and Andrews McMeel for this advanced copy.

This is an adorable book where cats are talking to you about everyday things and say nice things about the reader. It's a super cute book and a great book to read to help boost your self confidence.

This was amazing! The color and art style is beautiful and I love how large the cats' eyes become throughout each panel. It's a simple, uplifting series and is great for animal lovers all around.

This book was alright. I was hoping it would be better than this, though. I enjoyed a few of the pages but most of it was about biting and trite quotes from social media posts. I’m pretty disappointed. The art was cute. 2.5 stars rounded up to 3.

Absolutely adorable book of comics. I follow this artist on Instagram, and was excited to see the book available to read on NetGalley. It's a lovely mix of cat themed jokes and uplifting messages. This book would be a great gift for any cat lover.

Thanks for the EArc NetGalley and Andrews McMeel. The illustrations on this are so adorable. The text was confusing at times which is why I gave this three stars. Some of it was just odd and I didn’t care for it.

I adore cats! I adore comics with cats! I adore comics with cats drawn by beloved Portuguese artist Luis Coelho, a bright star on Instagram (@purr.in.ink)! And I adore this book, his very first, which made me both lol and reflect on the pithy sayings designed to give you comfort, wisdom and joy! Highly recommended for adults who also love comics with cats drawn lovingly by Coelho. Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

This is an absolutely adorable little book. Full of sweet affirmations and drawing of adorable cats with huge eyes. This is definitely a book I will buy and keep in my library. A great gift for any cat lover!

Thank you, NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for this advanced reader's copy. This book was awesome! I have seen some of these cat comics on Instagram, so these cats were not new to me. This is a collection of cute, funny, adorable, feisty, and all-around perfect cats reminding you that you are loved, find joy, and there is always room for more food and cat love bites.

If you love cats, this is the book for you!

The Book of Purrs is a beautifully rendered book of the cutest black cats you have ever seen.
Portuguese illustrator Luis Coelho has included all of his well known cartoons - best to known via instagram (@purr.in.ink). The beautiful picture highlight what we love most about cats and includes plenty of affirmations for a dreary day! #thebookofpurrs #luiscoelho #purrinink

the book of purrs consists of short inspirational and humorous quotes spoken by cats. it's a feel-good contemporary, very short comic with beautiful almost paper-like illustration of cats of many shapes and colours. it's a perfect book for cat lovers, every page is filled by a funny cat thought, a lot of times very relatable it could make you cry if you thought about it for a bit longer. overall, it's a great comic to consume on public transport, in between daily tasks, before bed, on vacation...

What a delightfully wonderful little book! Full of beautiful images, positive affirmations and humour, this little book is perfect for cat lovers of all ages.

Thank you to NG and the publisher for the earc in exchange for an honest review.
