review 1: This was a little tedious as it was like coming across and reading someone's diary entries that you don't know very well if at all and learning more than you should have. Which is exactly what happened actually since I hadn't read any of the Arcane Society books before. Still, I'm a Krentz fan, even if I haven't read any of her work in a few years and I enjoy the paranormal aspect. It was that and the authors name that attracted me when I came across this as a freebie. I'm intrigued enough with the two series this introduced me to to dig them up as I admit I would have enjoyed this more if I understood what was happening a little better so this was bumped up to three stars.
review 2: If you can get this book for free, it might be worthwhile, but don't pay for i... moret. This is the printed version of a Twitter mystery called "Death in a Bookstore", a small case that occurs just before In Too Deep. Fallon Jones is asked by the new bookstore owner, Fitch, to investigate what happened in his store before he bought it. Once the former owner is discovered in the basement, Fallon begins pulling together the threads of the mystery, stumbling across another possible conspiracy.The rest of the book, a mere 41 digital pages, is one big advertisement containing previews of upcoming books. Basically, look at this as a sampler with a bonus short story.Twitter really didn't serve Krentz well, constraining her talent for description and emotion. I had read some of the tweets as they were originally posted, but found it difficult to get into the mystery, even though I know the characters involved. 3 out of 5. less
