This was by far my favorite by this author so far. Most of them are okay for me, but I really liked these characters and this set up. Maybe it’s my love for libraries. Maybe it’s the friendships and the back stories. And I loved the other settings as well. The wine bar, the lake, the poker games and the cheese makers! 

Is it a predictable trope? Sure. But I don’t mind that. Were these like-able characters? Absolutely. 

It’s the perfect summer read.
