Loved this one. After getting discouraged with "The Beautiful Mystery" to the point I didn't really finish it, I found I enjoyed every word of "How the Light Gets In." From the mystery of the Quints, to the backstory of the animosity of Francouer to Gamache -- every plot point rang true, and it had an emotionally satisfying ending.

Gamache #8 and #9 are my favourites, deceptively simple and addictive, with heartwarming moments and textured characters with elegant plots, before the storylines kinda started repeating themselves... (which is hard to avoid with limited setting scope and so many sequels.)

Ugh I love these books. I don't know what I'll do when I'm done reading them all!

The perfect book at a difficult time. Wonderful to be absorbed in the world of three pines when I needed an escape.
