It’s time to revisit the Kokoro Clinic for the Soul. Though it’s a mysteriously located clinic with an uncertain address, it can always be found by those who need it. And the clinic has proven time after time that a prescribed cat has the power to heal the emotional wounds of its patients. This charming sequel introduces a new lovable cast of healing cats, from Kotetsu, a four-month-old Bengal who unleashes his boundless energy by demolishing bed linen and curtains, to tenacious and curious Shasha, who doesn’t let her small size stop her from anything, and the most lovable, lazy Ms. Michiko, who is as soft and comforting as mochi. As characters from one chapter appear as side characters in the next, we follow a young woman who cannot help pushing away the man who loves her; a recently widowed grandfather whose grandson refuses to leave his room; the family of a young woman who struggle to understand each other, and an anxious man who works at a cat shelter seeking to show how the most difficult cats can be the most rewarding. This moving, magical novel of interconnected tales proves the strength of the unfathomable bond between cats and people.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2529g67dj6ff48kj0dacje.jpg?v=6f5a4e78ad","LXPF+In3xbxb9[WFWUjE{zniM|W=",2025,"5.00",500,[238],{"id":239,"slug":240,"name":241},"01kkc6jpy828599bsk3r9a20nx","ishida-syou-awpz","Ishida Syou",[243,244],{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},[246],{"id":247,"slug":248,"name":249,"position":12,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx2529gp0tvehvvdatj2r9sy","well-prescribe-you-a-cat-xzxm","We'll Prescribe You a Cat",{"pace":151,"complexity":7,"audience":119,"mood":251,"themes":253,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[252,200],"heartwarming",[226,179],{"id":255,"slug":256,"title":257,"description":258,"primary_cover_url":259,"cover_blurhash":260,"first_publish_year":163,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":16,"page_count":261,"authors":262,"genres":267,"series":273,"enrichment":274},"01kx2ag861969b8q9p5a4rqecb","fates-and-furies-8hjf","Fates and Furies","A woman's marriage and family life unravel under the pressure of a violent, controlling husband in this tense domestic drama set across several decades.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ag876vab4ftq8xs95pcys.jpg?v=90f714eeba","L4FQ?=tm00XTAvT0NH.8~C.79a.8",400,[263],{"id":264,"slug":265,"name":266},"01kk3enbjecbgeksxv4yrmbexs","lauren-groff-ccgc","Lauren Groff",[268,269],{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":270,"name":271,"slug":272,"is_fiction":19},4,"Romance","romance",[],{"pace":275,"complexity":7,"audience":119,"mood":276,"themes":278,"setting_period":7,"summary":258,"content_warnings":7},"fast",[121,277],"tense",[],{"id":280,"slug":281,"title":282,"description":283,"primary_cover_url":284,"cover_blurhash":285,"first_publish_year":286,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":16,"page_count":287,"authors":288,"genres":293,"series":299,"enrichment":300},"01kx2m96xnxv06gat8fcca66fr","salvage-the-bones-arhe","Salvage the Bones","They heard it on the radio.

The two friends are quickly taken in by a pair of quirky, older house cleaners. But something seems off, and Joe starts to suspect the two older men of being up to something otherworldly.

Overworked and underpaid, she lives in a blur of back-to-back classes, side hustles, and job applications for an ever-dwindling number of tenure-track jobs. Her already precarious existence is thrown into disarray when she runs into her former grad school adviser, Dr. Tom Sternberg, on campus. Tom and Sam have a complicated history, and it’s the last thing she wants to think about as she navigates academic politics, institutional hurdles, and romantic entanglements with men and women that further complicate a sexuality not even she can define. Then she learns that Tom left his old job for undisclosed reasons—and his long-awaited second novel is about a professor reckoning with his checkered past. As rumors spread that Sam is the inspiration behind a central character, she fights to regain control of the story. An “entertaining, provocative” (Brooklyn Rail) look at how hustle culture has come to define modern academia, The Adjunct offers a bold twist on a tangled MeToo story and turns Sam’s downward spiral into a searing critique of class and the hollow promises of the American dream.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2b7r6a2n3dch6m59kekf4a.jpg?v=ee37c1e789","L9Q$3B_3*Kl;8wMd-:d9p1VHHVxn",2026,[713],{"id":714,"slug":715,"name":716},"01kx2b7r63kzcfzgh9pxyhnf7s","maria-adelmann-sis1","Maria Adelmann",[718,719],{"id":347,"name":348,"slug":349,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":275,"complexity":7,"audience":119,"mood":722,"themes":723,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[376,377],[204],{"id":725,"slug":726,"title":727,"description":728,"primary_cover_url":729,"cover_blurhash":730,"first_publish_year":731,"community_rating_avg":235,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":732,"authors":733,"genres":738,"series":741,"enrichment":742},"01kx24r6mag3enf51683esxgr0","the-safety-of-objects-bogn","The Safety of Objects","Published to overwhelming critical acclaim, this remarkable collection of short stories established A.
