Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.

1 - no, doesn't like milk 2 - nailed it 3 - will eat when she's ready, NOT when you are 4 - sleeps most times anyways, usually in a spot that inconvenient to the human. 5 addendum - wants to be picked up for a cuddle, bites the hand the reaches out to pet her. That about covers it.
Yes - that seems about right! 😄🐱
