The most important thing I can say about this series is that it is best that you read them in ordller. Read this series, you’ll be glad you did. Several mysteries are entwined and some from previous books are solved! There is no “Now who was this guy, anyway?”. Unlike in some books the characters are distinctive and give the reader distinctive personalities. The primary characters are expanded in each book and new characters are often introduced. Best of all are Jane’s eccentric Aunt and Uncle who also live at Storyton Hall.Īs others have noted it is probably best to read these books in order. I love the strong well-developed characters: Jane Steward the main character and “owner” of Storyton Hall and mother of amusing twin boys, the devoted butler Mr. I have read every book of the Book Retreat Mysteries series. The Antiques & Collectibles Mysteries and the Book Retreat Mysteries are my favorites. I read and enjoy all of the Ellery Adams series although the Supper Club one is my least favorite. I'm just now emerging from the Covid hibernation. First, I have to apologize for the lateness of this review.
