A locked door murder mystery set in a rare books library? YES PLEASE!! I couldn't read this gothic thriller fast enough. As a librarian/archivist who has worked at the Thomas Fisher rare book library in Toronto (just like the author), this one was a pure delight! Twisty and dark and it kept me guessing right to the end. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an early digital copy in exchange for my honest review!

What an interesting premise for a book! Locked inside a cage in the basement of the library with no way out until morning is the basis of the novel. With characters coming from multiple backgrounds and perspectives, the motivation behind what is driving the decisions of each character become very important. But, the most important question of all is can you survive until morning?

This is a CRAZY novel. Enter this gothic library if you DARE!
Seven grad students gather in the basement of the rare books library to recreate an ancient Greek ritual focusing upon Persephone. When one of the students falls ill, fingers are pointed and it's a tense, chaotic scrum to get out of the library before it's too late. Very interesting, very unique, That Night in the Library is a great thriller/horror story! #EvaJurczyk #ThatNightinthelibrary #poisonedpenpress #

Couldn’t finish this. Unlikeable characters that aren’t interesting or amusing.. Long descriptions of irrelevant matters. Tedious pacing.
