Featured on Katie Couric Media's "10 Books to Read Once You’ve Finished Watching 'The White Lotus'"!

In this sun-dappled mystery from New York Times bestselling author Allison Brennan, a risk-averse bibliophile gets in over her head when strange notes in a book draw her into a real-life investigation.

Mia Crawford is responsible to a fault. She has to be. Between her high-demand job and taking care of her grandmother and her cats, she has little time for anything else. What time she does have, she pours into reading. Mysteries, romances, thrillers…books filled with women who are far more impulsive than she would ever dream of being. Now, forced into taking a long-overdue vacation, she finds herself on a luxurious private island where she just might have a chance to reinvent herself—for a little while, anyway. She can explore the island. Flirt shamelessly with a cute bartender. Have a vacation fling. Live like a heroine in one of her favorite novels.

Or she can curl up with a good book on the beach. Turns out reinventing yourself is easier planned than done. But when gossipy notes written in the margins of an old book turn out to be clues to the disappearance of another guest, Mia finds herself diving headfirst into a dangerous adventure. With everyone at the resort hiding secrets of their own, she’ll have to solve this real-life mystery before she becomes the next target.

Loved all of the book quotes!

Great story told well by the narrator. something a little different from Ms Brennan. Please keep them coming!!

The Book I didn't know I needed.

I was skeptical at first but I never miss a book by Allison Brennan. There were a lot of twist and turns. A murder along with love mixed in. The character development was entertaining and kept me invested until the end. I wish this wasn't a stand alone book. Would love another book.

All the plot twists

I liked the characters and the plot. It was a little hard to keep up with all the different women.

Boring Read

This was so boring, nothing ever really happened. Mia was back and forth wanting to solve the mystery then get side tracked by thinking about how sexy Jason was every other sentence.

Location

Predictable slow read The story never really grasped the reader. Great visual description of location though.
