When I was compiling the most recent Top Ten Tuesday list dedicated to books with cats on the cover, I realised that I could have simply filled it with covers of Mikhail Bulgakov’s classic, The Master and Margarita, since there were so many of them.

He is certainly my favourite fictional feline and makes for a great cover image. Here are some of the book covers I found.

Another concert that got delayed and delayed and delayed yet again finally happened! Great show with something old, something newer, and a country cover of Eminem I never knew I wanted.

Another Tuesday, another Top Ten Tuesday list from That Artsy Reader Girl – this week’s topic is Books with [___] On the Cover. Naturally, for me it had to be cats.
