A publisher recently paid $1.25 million for a book about a rescued cat that has lived in a small Iowa town’s library for nearly two decades. The co-authors are going to be one of the library’s librarians and an editor from the publisher of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” books.

I think I’ll skip this sure to be heart-warming and life-affirming book and stick with the novel about a rat that lives in a bookstore and watches porn from Madison resident Sam Savage.
