No Cats Allowed (Cat in the Stacks Mystery)

No Cats Allowed by Miranda James is the seventh book in A Cat in the Stacks Mystery series. There is a new interim director at the Athena College Library. Unfortunately, Oscar Reilly is going out of his way to alienate everyone on the staff including Charlie Harris and his Maine Coon cat, Diesel. When Charlie is asked to leave Diesel at home, Charlie decides to take a leave of absence. But then Oscar Reilly turns up dead in the basement (crushed with shelving). When Charlie's friend and co-worker, Mabel Gilley is accused of the crime, Charlie starts investigating. Then Charlie is asked to step in as the new interim director. Charlie may not last long on the job when someone tries to put him out of commission. Can Charlie figure out who the killer is and stay out of harm's way? I enjoyed reading No Cats Allowed. No cats Allowed may be the seventh book in the series, but it can easily be read as a stand-alone novel. I have not read any of the other books in the series, but I will definitely be reading them now. I liked the characters in the book (there are a lot of them) and Diesel, the cat. The mystery was interesting, but it was child's play to solve (I kept hoping for a good twist at the end, but there was not one). I give No Cats Allowed 4 out of 5 stars (I liked it). I look forward to the next book in A Cat in the Stacks Mystery!

I received a complimentary copy of No Cats Allowed from NetGalley in exchange for an honest evaluation of the book!
