Reviewed by Bernadette Longu for Readers' Favorite

In Ally Cat, A Tale of Survival by Kathleen J. Shields, the story goes back in time to the Second World War, Hitler and his mad science experiments, and how things changed and what happened. The story is told through the eyes of a young woman, Allison Catsworth (nicknamed Ally Cat), who discovers she has lived through these events. She also discovers, after an accident, that her DNA has changed to feline DNA! This story embraces science-fiction, shape-shifting, reincarnation, and the paranormal in the most exciting and mind-boggling way as Allison searches for answers to this mystery.

The author has written a book that all ages can enjoy. The reader’s attention will be caught from the very first chapter and the twist as it goes into the next chapter. This book will keep its reader glued to the pages until late into the night. It is a light read but well worth the time spent on it. Ally Cat, A Tale of Survival by Kathleen J. Shields will have the reader riveted to the end but the mystery does not end there as the author concludes the book with the most unexpected twist. The reader will find themself laughing at times, crying with the characters, and sitting on the edge of their seat as they turn the pages to find out what happens next. This is a really fun read for young and old, male and female readers alike. Thank you for this most exciting book, Kathleen. I really enjoyed reading it.
