“Karma is a Cat: The True Stories of Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benjamin Button Swift” is a sweet look at the life stories of Taylor Swift’s cats. The illustrations focus on the cats who appear in their own portraits, but also on Swift’s album covers. There is a timeline of Swift’s career and the lives of the cats as well as thumbnail size images of all of the cat breeds Swift named on late night TV. The end of the book has great information on where to go to adopt cats from shelters. In other words, the cats are the real stars of this book.

The origin story of the names of the cats is fun and demonstrates how and why our furry friends get the names they do.

This book is great for fans of Taylor Swift or cats (or both!). It’s a great addition to Swift collectibles. If you’re wondering if you should get the book, the answer is yes.

A must have for any Cat loving Swifties of all ages. The information not only offered about Taylor's cats specifically but their breeds as well is wonderful. The artwork is fun as well.

This book was so cute. I love Taylor Swift and cats, so why wouldn't I love this? The way they wrote about Taylor was so interesting, but it was through the lens of her cats.

This book has nothing to do with karma or any new-age beliefs. If you love Taylor Swift, cats, or both, this book is purr-fect! While the experiences of Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benjamin Button may be far from ordinary, this non-fiction children's book still gives you a glimpse into the lives of pet lovers like Taylor Swift. ‘Karma is a Cat’ also introduces kids to cat breeds like the Scottish fold and ragdoll.

The narrative might be lengthy for some younger kids, but it's definitely a treat for older ones, especially those who follow Taylor Swift and pop culture.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC!

As a Swiftie and a cat lady, I gravitated toward this book immediately. It was a fun mix of entertaining memories about Taylor’s cats and informative facts about their breeds. I also loved the artwork. I recommend this book to any young Swifties who are looking for a book beyond Taylor’s general biography.

I adore this so much!!! Can't recommend enough for cat lovers, childless cat lady like myself and fans of Taylor Swift.

I want to start by saying I would not consider myself a fan of Taylor Swift's music. But I am a fan of cats and this book was so cute. It focuses on her cats specifically and gives you all the basic information about the breed and her cats. It has sections for each cat and then more information about Taylor Swift. This will be an excellent gift for any Swift fan.

4 stars

I am not a Swiftie by any means but I will admit that if one of her songs that I know comes on the radio I will have a bit of a hum or even a mini sing along, but even with fairly limited knowledge of the lady herself, I do know how much she loves her three cats, and is a fan of cats in general (she is a real advocate) and it was that which drew me to this book, having adopted two kittens in April.

The book has some lovely art work and illustrations and I liked the stories of their cheekiness and also that they get their own little sections too. The book tells too that she is a great supporter of rescues and giving cats a second chance too - a massive plus from me with her that she wants to save animals.

It's not a complicated read, its a bit of fun, lighthearted and will be a welcome addition to the bookcase of any Swifties out there! It is 4 stars from me for this one

This was purrfect! I loved the art style so much and enjoyed knowing more about Taylor’s kitties! And the extra information about ragdoll and Scottish folds. It’s an enjoyable read especially if you’re a cat person, and even if you’re not, it’ll make you one! I love that it gives you information for adoption as well. I can’t wait to physically buy this for my niece. This was precious.

Aw, this book is just so adorable! In these pages, we can find the story of how the 3 cats became part of the Swift family, the inspiration behind their names, interesting facts about their breeds, and the fun times they had out and about. There are so many beautiful illustrations—seriously, even her album covers have been reimagined with cats. I just love it! It’s a short, sweet read. I do wish there were some real photos included alongside the illustrations, but I understand that would be challenging.

Thanks to Ten Speed Press for the ARC!

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher for this advance readers copy in exchange for my honest feedback. Beautiful book and I know my even gown up daughter would love this as a true Swiftie! This book gives the backstory and facts on Taylors famous cats Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benjamin Button Swift.

This book is for all the Swifties that are cat lovers and even though who aren't. I don't know anyone who wouldn't like to learn more about Taylor Swift's adorable cats. I don't own cats, but after reading this I feel like maybe I should. I knew about Taylor's cats, but not until this book did I really KNOW about them. Excellent cute short read for everyone to enjoy!

Karma is a Cat is a book all about Taylor Swift’s three cats. This book gives way more information than I had expected, making it a perfect gift for huge Swifties.

The illustrations are so well done and so much fun. It is worth reading this book for the illustrations alone!

I received a complementary ARC of this book from NetGalley on behalf of the author and the publisher. This book is adorable! A great book for Taylor Swift and or cat lovers. The stories about her three cats are precious and I love their little stat sheets. The illustrations are great and the Easter Eggs are so cool!

For those who don't know much about Taylor's famous cats (and also if you do), this book provides a fun and interesting introduction. It not only gives you a little peek into the cats their life and personalities, but also hints at the universal love for cats that Taylor and so many people worldwide have, and that is lovely. (The cat-loving energy was high!)

This book is filled with illustrations and they are all absolutely amazing! They are packed with easter eggs, just like Taylor's lyrics and music videos are always filled with hints and references. It's kind of like a treasure hunt for Swifties. Whether you are spotting references to iconic moments or just enjoying the cute artwork, there is so much to see.
Despite being full of information, the book is wonderfully light and cozy-feeling, and easy to read. It is educational yet relaxing, and informative without feeling dense. It's an enjoyable feel-good read with fluffy drawings and cute colours, and it made me really happy.

This book would make for a great gift for a swiftie cat lover! It would be cute as a coffee table book! I loved the illustrations!

Obviously I will read any book about Taylor Swift! The book goes into detail about Taylor Swift’s 3 cats and the timeline of her adopting them! I loved reading and learning more information about this aspect of her life.

I may dislike cats a lot, but this book was adorable and educational! Add in all of the Taylor Swift tidbits and it’s a really quick read. I love how, at the end, it’s promoting the adoption of cats and giving the reader statistics about how many cats don’t have homes.

Definitely a coffee table book, but in a great way. Something any Swift fan would love. Not a literary masterpiece but fun and entertaining. My children actually loved it.

Such a short quick read yet so informational on the breed of cats, etc. super cute illustrations and so insightful. If you ever wanted to know more about Taylor swifts cats like when she got them their temperament etc this is the book for you. Highly recommend.
