G: - I try to purchase all the “appropriate” Amazon books of the month. This one was a winner with all audiences. The main characters are probably in their mid to late twenties, but adults and teens could relate to the story. If you like quirky small bookstores, a mystery about secret codes and an eclectic range of characters, this book is for you. It’s short and a fast read. Enjoy.
Amazon: Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore is an old school mystery set firmly in tech-loving, modern day San Francisco. Clay Jannon (former web designer) lands a job at a bookstore with very few patrons and even fewer purchases. His curiosity leads him to the discovery of a larger conspiracy at play, one exciting enough to rope in his best friend (CEO at a startup) and love interest (works at Google). As Clay and company unravel the puzzles of Mr. Penumbra's book shop, the story turns into a sort of nerdy heist, with real-life gadgets, secret societies, and a lot of things to say about the past, present, and future of reading.
