Obligatory I have not read any other of the books in this series, and this is the sixth one in the Haunted Library series. This book is very spooky! There’s ghosts! There’s a complicated web of interpersonal politics! There’s an appropriately slow start! There’s a resident ghost! There’s a cat named Smoky Joe! There’s A […]
Honestly! I would read anything by Lynn Cahoon and also I have a new favorite audiobook narrator! I love that this story is set in a place where things aren’t vaguely permanently Christianized (ie, there’s a fortune teller, a crystal shop, etc), and I love that it doesn’t necessarily center around the main character’s bookshop, […]
This book is WILD and an incredible mystery. It’s set in Boston, in the Boston Public Library, with at least three different layers to it. It’s a thriller that functions as well as a mystery — ie, it doesn’t just keep you on the edge of your seat, there’s actively something to figure out as […]
Obligatory this is the second in a series and I did not read the first. In this book, Vivian has an adopted dog, Felix, who I found Annoying and Uninteresting. This book also has a lot of ‘thriller’ elements — it surrounds a diamond theft and then a ‘surprise’! murder. It’s paced kind of weirdly, […]
Once again! This is a book in a series I haven’t read but I don’t care and it was fine, actually. Lots more action here right out of the gate than I usually expect from a cozy mystery, which did make the entire book feel kind of rushed – where is the underpinning of silly […]
Once again I have not read the other books in this series etc etc. Personally I don’t think you need to read cozy mystery books in order, I think series in the genre of cozy mysteries are mostly a fun bonus and a way to follow your favorite authors. More of a feature rather than […]
Incredibly, I have actually read another book in this series! It was part of the big stack of library books I took home for over winter break. Anyhow, I liked this second entry (for me) into the series, and the ninth book overall. Eccentric small town characters! A lighthouse! Charles the cat! A library nemesis!!!! Four stars […]
