Review: Loved the wordplay!
Rating: 4 out of 5

The story is in medias res, and begins with an angry confrontation between  Ivy and Simon. In feeling betrayed, Ivy goes to her haven - the library, where a ghost tries to get her to rethink her wish to forget Simon forever.The concept is very interesting, and I loved all the references to authors and all the wordplay in the book. Very well done, Mrs. Burns!However, I have to admit that Ivy's character leaves a little to be desired. She is presented as a very intelligent and sensible woman, yet she could not even hear her cousin out when she believe she was betrayed by her. Her angst carries out for many years, and despite her realizing that she was not behaving rightly, she still could not see past her own anger. This frustrated me, as with her reluctance to let Simon into her heart. Thankfully, the ghost throws a surprise at the end, and it's HEA again.All the reference to books and reading in the novel makes it a good read by a cozy fire in a cold night. :)
