Librarian vs. Reader: 7 1/2 Deaths
Librarian: Yes. This book should absolutely be bought for any library's mystery collection. Don't let yourself be turned off by the slightly fantastical elements of the set-up (man wakes up in a different body every day with no memories-except for a single name). This is a good old-fashioned murder mystery. It's got all the right twists and turns to appeal to readers who love having the chance to try to solve it before the end of the book. On a reader's advisory note, I would personally recommend this book to fans of classic mystery authors like Doyle and Christie.
Reader: Man, I haven't had this much fun with a mystery novel since the first time I read And Then There Were None back when I was in high school. I don't want to spoil this one (you really should go in unspoiled), but just know. It's kind of confusing when you start out, but hang in there. It's worth it.
