Whether or not you enjoy the “book within a book” will, I suspect, determine your rating. I thought the book started rather slowly, and I admit it took me a bit to get my bearings. (Having read Horowitz’s twisty Murder is the Word and The Sentence is Death between the two Susan Ryeland novels threw me off, I suppose.) Personally, I loved the book within a book, but I can imagine readers turned off by it if they’re not into the story. For me it was a delight overall, despite all the red herring Leos!
Having read and loved Magpie, I was very excited to start Moonflower. I do enjoy the book-inside-a-book premise, and I appreciated how Moonflower introduces the people of the modern case before jumping into the text of Alan Conway’s book (the opposite of Magpie).

Wow, it's obviously this character. The clues are hidden but I have found them easily. My intellect knows no bounds.
