Received an ARC of this book at PLA and was looking forward to reading it because I have a thing for books about books. However, I would not really call this a mystery; it's women's lit (modern realistic fiction that focuses primarily on a woman and her life), and I definitely do not mean that in any untoward way, just as an opinion as a reader to guide other readers as to whether they will enjoy this book. It is much more character, family, personal relationship and life choices driven as a story, than really mystery driven. I enjoyed it with a few small caveats, that have mostly to do with what I like as a reader.
