There are two main problems with this book:
1) In the first book, Alfie adopts himself out to several families, each with problems, some very serious problems. Alfie loves these people and wants to help them. In this book, the main serious problem is something that is happening to a family that Alfie does not know well, nor do any of the people in his life (distance from the reader). It reminds me of the TV series, "Lost" where they promised every week that you would soon discover the secret. People got bored and gave up on it. Same here.
2) Alfie takes on too many human actions in this book. It's one thing to anthropomorphize an animal. It's kind of sweet to imagine that they think like we do. But it's another thing for the cat to take on human actions (eg: picking flowers for a date). This just felt off.
I will continue in the series and hope the next book rises up to the level of the first.… (meer)
