Thank you @weareprovoco

@hyggebooktours for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book.
The Ninth life of Norris is a contemporary fantasy genre. I was drawn to the front cover and blurb straight the way due to the adorable ginger cat. I love cats, so was eagerly awaiting to read this book. The story is about Norris who has been reincarnated in to a cat and remembers all his eight lives, and he’s not happy with them. Norris comes across an old friend called Jimmy and wants to help because he feels like he failed him in his previous life but feels he can’t do this by being a cat. This is an incredible story that took me a day to read. The story was gripping from the start and a unique read. I absolutely loved it and I loved Norris the cat and how he tried to help everyone. The characters are wonderful, and you like them straight the way, and it is lovely to see them develop through the story. I must admit the Ninth life of Norris did make me cry, but what a lovely ending. . I was very satisfied with the ending. It touched my heart. . Beautiful written and magical to read. If you love cats, you will love this. Strongly recommend 5 stars.
Book Blurb:
Norris has been here before. He knows he's lived eight other lives and what's more, he can remember them all. He's not proud of them, especially the one where he left his pal, Jimmy Morgan, at the mercy of German soldiers in the second world war. The discovery that he's been reincarnated as a cat isn't going to help his resolution to make amends to his old friend and when he finds himself, by a strange quirk of fate, adopted from an animal rescue centre by Jimmy Morgan's grand-daughter. Once settled into Jimmy's home, Norris realises not all is well in the old man's life and he's got himself involved in criminal activity at the behest of his late wife's family who are blackmailing Jimmy because they know he's in debt. When Norris discovers all this, he knows the only way he can apologise to Jimmy, is to try help him in the present. But how exactly can he do this when he is a cat and when Jimmy's small time criminal activities place his grand-daughter, Stella, in danger?
