StayCurious I love when authors are creative in their dedications. Julia Quinn always has something fun to say to her husband in her dedications. 5y

My kindle and then my phone died last night so no picture. This was by far my favorite of the series. I didn't see the killer coming at all, and the mystery surrounding the Fins and Templars went deeper. The story arc at the end will actually carry into the next book for the first time, making me even more excited for the next installment. Plus books about books- you can't go wrong!

Kshakal I just started this book... I love this series so much!! 5y
BethM @Kshakal me too! 5y
