Fun as always. The mystery was a little less satisfying this time around, but it's a good enough read.

This series is light and to the point. Interesting enough characters, and I enjoyed the mystery.

Pretty decent. The language did its best to be period appropriate, which I'm not sure added a lot. There were some good layers to the story, but I wasn't enthralled by it. Even so, it was a decent mystery, just not one I enjoyed as much as I ecepected.

Even better than the first. A great whodunnit that gives you all the clues. Good cast and a lot of moving pieces. Sometimes the meta-ness is too much (like the Acknowledgments, of all places), but it was still such a blast. Hawthorne was a bit more likable this time around, which is nice.

Definitely a detective story! Very cool meta frame, definitely made me question some reality. Maybe too many characters, but I liked how procedural it felt. Definitely comfort food as a book.
