Ottoline and the Yellow Cat by Chris Riddell

Did not finish book. Stopped at 70%.
I really enjoyed the book about Ottoline at school, but for some reason I didn’t like this one as much. In this one Ottoline didn’t come across as a very likeable character in my opinion. She’s mostly rude and condescending to her supposed friend Mr Munroe even when he’s trying to help her and she seems like a bit of a pompous know-it-all. The school book was the first one I read and she’s sometimes rude to Mr Munroe and ignores him but I assumed that was because she’d made a new friend in that story - I didn’t think she treated him like that in every book almost like a running joke. The mystery of the Yellow Cat was a bit obvious and not particularly interesting too.
