Murder in the Locked Library by Ellery AdamsMy rating: 3 of 5 stars, I liked it.
Book 4 in the series. Not the best place to start if you are new to the series.
I love the idea of this series, the book retreat concept is lovely, and I like Jane and her boys. However, this one left me kind of bored until about halfway through, and then rather annoyed at the end. I was not a fan of the additional plot/cliffhanger thrown in about Jane's lover, Edwin. I hate cliffhangers, they feel like a cheap way to ensure that someone reads the next book. Also, I'm kind of feeling that the plots are starting to become more convoluted and cloak and dagger-ish.
I will continue to read, because I love the setting, Jane, the twins and the Fins. It almost feel like they're family. I just hope the Edwin storyline doesn't get drawn out over multiple books.
