I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion or my review itself.
Addie is known both as a bookseller and as a bit of an amateur detective, someone who can't help but be intrigued by the mystery of a crime. So when one body is found, and then another, surrounding the luxury yacht where an over-the-top wedding has just occurred, Addie starts exploring the library in the hope of picking up some clues. When the guests and staff are all kept on the yacht as suspects, Addie knows she must hurry before the killer strikes again.
This was a fun, enjoyable read. Even though I haven't read the rest of the series, I didn't really feel confused or unable to follow the relationships and side plots. I really liked the relationships between Addie and her close friends, and Addie and her boyfriend.
The solution to the mystery seemed a bit out of left field-there didn't really seem to be any way a reader could have figured it out from the previous pages. But the characters were well-done, and I loved that the mystery centered around books, especially an Agatha Christie.
