The Ghost and the Dead Man's Library by Cleo Coyle, Alice Kimberly
5.0
This is a re-read as a listen and I am chain-reading/listening this series. I seem to be in the mood for a chain-read, back-to-back in other words.
I've been a fan of Cleo Coyle for some time and I like the Coffeehouse series a lot, but I love the Haunted Bookshop the most. It has a lot to do with the resident ghost, Jack Shepherd, I'm not ashamed to admit. HUGE crush on Jack. His personality, his vocabulary, and the way he's teaching Pen to stand up for herself. She's come a very long way since the first book and how she deals with people, her former in-laws, and issues at hand. Especially how she deals with investigating the murders she keeps stumbling into.
This one is a bit more violent I think, so maybe that gets ramped up with each entry in the series. Might my imagination and it's not a big deal to me.
Part of why I like the series, too, is how Jack shares an investigation with Pen both in his case files and when he guides her dreams. They tend to tie in with what's going on in current time with what Pen and the Quibblers are investigating.
I can definitely recommend this book, series and author
