The four bond and speculate on the scream. The security guards keep everyone still until they clear the room. Freddie is at a table with three other people when the scream occurs. While there, a woman screams garnering the attention of everyone in the library. Australian mystery writer Winifred (aka Freddie) Kincaid is at the BPL (Boston Public Library) on a quest for inspiration for a new novel, which she is setting in the United States. Sound confusing? It’s not, but it’s enough to keep the reader focused. Gentill cleverly writes a mystery within a mystery. I very much enjoyed Sulari Gentill’s new novel, “The Woman in the Library”.
Anyway this was well written and unique and kept me wondering the whole time. I could go on but it really only becomes a conversation when you have a back and forth. I think all expressions should have a voice. I’ve actually wanted to write a book myself without a mention. I also appreciated even the idea of the characters races not being addressed. The end was troubling for me, but I applaud the author for such a complex and truly unique plot. I do not understand the fictitious Leo’s character. I liked the relevance of the pandemic and the issues taking place for Leo in his real world. Marigold is a terrible name and her language was so off putting gag! But I still loved her innocent heart. It ended abruptly and with not resolution for any of the remaining characters. I’ve read another similar book and enjoyed it. I enjoyed the idea of a book within a book within a book.
But why did it end in two seconds? Also potential spoilers!
