The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers: A novel | 
As someone who enjoys puzzles of all types, I had to give this one a shot. It is a sweet story about friends and chosen family and I enjoyed it. It did take me a little longer to read than normal, as I kept stopping to solve the puzzles myself. This is a light read, with a bit of a mystery and a touch of romance and was a lovely calm choice during the crazy build up to Christmas. This is a debut novel and I will watch for more. 3.75/5 stars

“The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers” was a cute and cozy read about finding yourself and new-found family that was immersed in the vast field of puzzles. I enjoyed this story, and I found that it is a great light read that is also heartwarming.
pickFor the first quarter of this book i thought it might be too twee for me - but then i warmed to the characters and devoured the rest of this heart warming story. It really is a light mystery with a touch of romance - and lots of illustrated cryptic puzzles to solve! (Although i didnt bother trying to solve many of them and it was still a good experience) Clayton is a foundling left on the steps of The Fellowship ⬇️
pickI really enjoyed this audiobook, but I do kind of wish I‘d gotten it in print, because there are puzzles in it! The audio version does its best to alter them, but without seeing them I couldn‘t attempt to solve them.
This story is delightful, on dual timelines. The first is the creation of the Fellowship, a club for puzzle creators and solvers. The second is after the founder‘s passing, as her adopted son solves the puzzle she left him. 🩷🧩
