The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers by Samuel Burr

4.0

Hard to rate this one. I was given this book and had no idea what I was getting into and honestly didn't think I would read it through. What was it about ? Puzzles? Turns out a bunch of older adults started a commune and made puzzles and got a baby dropped at their door. And now the baby is an adult, Clayton, and wants to solve the puzzle of his life, literally. It's a cozy mystery with no murder. It had a feel good theme that was reminiscent of a 90's romantic comedy. Like one you watched 100 times and still enjoy. You could pick it apart or just enjoy it. The puzzles were sometimes easy and some I just let Nancy solve for me.  It's a love story.  It's about finding your people and finding yourself. I liked Clayton and wanted to see him through this book. Quick read with an ending you probably can see coming but "The pleasure is always in the solving never the solution."
