I was stuck in a hospital waiting room and wanted something easy and engaging but not at all stressful to read... and this was perfect.  It's a cozy romance,  with m/m characters,  that reads well enough.  I could put it up and down without getting my heart rate up but was sufficiently engaged to pick it up again and keep reading.This is a bit damned with faint praise and it is not exactly a memorable book - if I didn't have this review,  I doubt I would know that I had read this in a year's time.  I liked the idea of the librarian detective with terrible allergies.  I liked his relationship with his brother,  though that could have been more fleshed out.  I liked his new/old love interest.  This felt like the equivalent of a Murder she wrote episode,  which is sufficiently distracting without really requiring too much thought or attention.  It was truly the perfect book for the situation I was in and I was grateful to have it then.
