"Qwill, Koko, and Yum Yum head out to Breakfast Island, which has been developed, much to Qwill's (and the native islanders!) dismay. But Nick has invited him out there to stay at his B&B so that he can explore the sabotage occurring around the island that has resulted in death and injury. With angry natives, rich summer homes, and tourists, there are a lot of potential leads. Only Koko can figure out the truth! The Cat Who formula is always a winner for a lighthearted, enjoyable read." — Marissa (4 out of 5 stars)

" I really enjoy this series...this is the third or fourth time I'm reading through the series but I have such a hard time with this book. I don't know why...the story line is familiar. But this book is very slow and boring. "
" We must've done a lot of driving. These Cat Who books are only read in the car, out loud to each other. We read three at "
" Qwill and cats go to Breakfast Island: a previously quiet hang-out for locals, now over-run with tourists. Are the old locals out to sabotage the plans for a new development? "
" Love these books! Characters remain the same and become familiar and comfortable to read about - like your own hometown characters! The books offer pure reading enjoyment - no heavy thinking, pondering - just reading for the pure pleasure of it! And I just LOVE the cats Koko and Yum Yum! "
" These start to become predictable after reading 10 or so but in a good, warm fuzzy blanket, cup of cocoa and murder sort of way. "
" Good but not as good as others in the series. The series as a whole is wonderful especially if you love cats. "
" Koko plays dominoes! Very cute. "
" More Cat Who--good relaxing reading! Wholesome too! "
" Library2Go Audiobook. Another fun "listen" featuring Mr. Q and his cats KoKo and Yum Yum. I particularly enjoyed this book because the descriptions of "Breakfast Island" sounded exactly like Mackinac Island, Michigan which I visited for the first time in June of 2010. Hope to return in the future. "
" I just wish they had stayed in Scotland the entire story, but still, a mystery that I wasn't sure about until the very end. Great read! "
" Best characterizations of Koko and Yum Yum yet. Not-so-subtle recurring theme of sustainable development and importance of community involvement and investment in tourism. "
" Reread it again while sipping coffee, and remembered why I loved this series! At times Braun's writing seems more suited to young adult me instead of grown up me, but the story is still solid and the characters still engaging. "
" This wasn't bad. A nice fluffy read. It's not a real mystery in that there are no real clues. Still, I find the cat habits to be amusing. "
" Another great "Cat who..." mystery. I really like these - very easy to listen to while you are busy... "
" It's always a pleasure to spend some time with Qwill, KoKo, and Yum Yum as well as the rest of the Pickax crew. I found this book to be very entertaining and it kept me guessing until the end. "
" Another great book by Lilian Jackson Braun "
" I have GOT to give up on this whole series. Ugh. Just because they were fun when I was in fifth grade... I don't even like most cats! "
" I was expecting strange and saccharine, but this was actually pretty good. A solid formula. "
" I have read allot of her books I am looking for an update - does anyone know of her bio or when or if she passed how many books total did she put out... "
" Excellent! Captivating as all the rest! "
" brain candy. it'll probably rot it but i love it "
" I love these books. Light weight, entertaining and very humorous. "
" I reread this mystery and was disappointed. "
