Thanks very much #NetGalley for the opportunity to enjoy an ARC of the latest book in Allison Brook's Haunted Library Mystery Series-- Dewey Decimated. This book is the sixth installment of this very enjoyable cozy series featuring a library and a ghost and Smokey Joe the library kitty. This book will be out on September 6th, so if you have not read the series you can start ready it and be ready for this when it is released!
I am finding lately that many of the cozies I am reading feature a cold case, I don't mind this at all as it is nice to see our sleuths find answers and it reduces the rapid-fire murders happening in their towns.
As usual, I enjoyed spending time with Carrie and the crew in Clover Ridge. I could have used more time with Carrie and her best friend Angela hanging out. We have in this book a new character who annoys Carrie--and the reader--the investigative reporter that won't quit. Then we also have a new ghost AND a major construction project at the library, so Carrie is really pulling her hair out. In the area of overarching mysteries, we learn a little more about Evelyn's situation and Dylan is more forthcoming with Carrie about how he grew up.
I found the town council aspects of the story to ring true to how politics works in a small town. The mystery and the who and the why of the killer worked for me. I am looking forward to the next book and have my fingers crossed maybe we will get to see Dylan and Carrie get married!
