This was a very sweet and easy read. While this is once again set in the library, it actually doesn't focus on a librarian. Sure, Finley works at a library, but she's getting a history room ready. And then we have Zeke, who while he is a tech guy, he is volunteering and not an official library tech. But that's okay, because I still loved both characters! There was so much in this story that made me laugh. In fact Finley's roommates, her grandmother, great-aunt, and their friend, all remind me of the grandparent characters in the books by one of my favorite authors, Emma Hart. So many funny moments in this one, especially the Ben-Wa ball moment as described in the excerpt below. For the most part it is a pretty simple and as I said, sweet story. But at the end, we get some intense events thanks to Zeke's father. It was a blast spending the time we did with our librarians we know from the other books, even though there was only a mention or two of the Winston brothers.

Now I'm just eager to read the next round of the SmartyPants Romance books which won't be till next spring or summer I think. Also, I have lots of thoughts about trying to either fix my one novel I started reworking during NaNoWriMo this year to possibly fit into the Penny Reid world, or else to start a new one so maybe I can get into the library world of this book!
