There is waaaaay too much going on in this story. Is is a city girl/country girl story? A romance with a librarian on wheels? A mystery about a burned castle? It goes on and on, but where it does not go is anyway interesting. The big reveal is a letdown, and with the magical element of the diary that predicts what will happen the next day, I expected so much more. The clues are so obvious they smack you in the face and then all of the parts are quickly explained in a chapter at the end.
As disappointed as I was, the voice is still familiar. I predict fans of Ahern will read it anyway and like it just because she stays true to her style. I just wish this story had had more meat and less filling.
BTW this is one of the PRETTIEST books I have seen in a long time. I loved the design. Why can't more books come with built in bookmarks?
