A delightful little story that as someone who lives in the area the bookshop is supposed to be set was extra enjoyable. The puzzles were interesting and not too obvious, the relationship between the siblings was a nice one to unpack, and it's really lovely to think that maybe in Melbourne there's still a bit of magic tucked away in the arcades.
