This was a fun book that was a quick read and a wild ride! A wonderful concept for anyone who has ever identified as a bookworm or thought librarians were the coolest of people! 

A twisting (albeit not very surprising) mystery plot line with lovable characters! There ARE some whacky surprises in store though.
Spoiler I did not see the alligators coming!
The ending leaves a bit to be desired, but with subsequent books in the series it was satisfying enough! 

I just enjoyed this book! It was fun and easy and I’m honestly looking forward to book two.

An enjoyable enough read, I liked the premise, the world building, and the characters to an extent, however I found some of the character dialogue, decision making, and descriptions a bit jarring and overly romantisized and out of place. 

Though it wasn't a complete page turner, I am still looking forward to seeing what is next for the characters and continuing on in the series!
