I enjoyed the setting, and the book talk.
Some of the characters personalities are a little over the top and the accusations/forgiveness was a bit overdone… I didn’t catch onto the whodunnit before the reveal, so that’s always a win for me. The Library and family group hooked me enough I’d pick up another in the series.
Also, “The Moonstone” is a book I’ve been meaning to read myself, so the classics bookclub appeal was strong. If this is a recurring plot point that could be fun to follow.
