Enjoyable series set during the 20s, with a bit more romance than I generally like but at least it doesn't take away from the story. The magic is interesting and makes it better. Will probably continue the series.

Book #2 in the Glass Library series. Sylvia is so similar to India… they‘ll have to meet at some point in the series and that will be interesting. This tale brought in a lot of characters…I‘m curious if many will show up again.
As good as book 1 in the series, this time our newly minted librarian is on the chase of a medieval mystery—who wrote, who owned, & who made the magical silver clasps of the Medici Manuscript? And what does its symbols mean? One reason I loved it is because I previously read The Bookseller of Florence in anticipation of my trip there, in which I learned vasts amounts about the making and selling of manuscripts & the Medici libraries.

I‘ve picked my next audiobook. @CoffeeK8 Would you like to join me?
This book is perfectly okay, nothing more. I like the characters, but Willie‘s attitude toward Sylvia is getting a little old. I am glad Archer didn‘t drag out the “is Gabe magical or isn‘t he” thing past this book. And some questions about Sylvia were resolved. A lot of Goodreads reviewers have liked the Glass & Steele series better, but I wasn‘t aware that this was a spin-off series, so I haven‘t read that one.
I thoroughly enjoyed this mystery involving the theft of a mysterious historical manuscript. The second book in The Glass Library series, there‘s an element of magic here, but it‘s not the focus of the story. Great ensemble of interesting characters. The third book comes out in September, and I just put in my preorder.

“Moving pictures are the future,” Daisy declared, “and I want to be in one.”
Enjoying the second installment of The Glass Library series.
A little magic ✔️. A little mystery ✔️. Some flirtatious dialogue ✔️. Some characters who are comfortable living outside the box of conformity ✔️.
I'm here for the simple things.
