Stealing Lumby by Gail Fraser
Buy on Amazon
Summary:
I was provided copies of the Lumby Books from the publisher after a favorable review of The Lumby Lines – but copies or no, I already had these books on my library list.
I really loved revisiting Lumby – it was fun meeting up with Pam and Mark again, fun seeing the monks and I had the most fun reading the stories in the Lumby Lines newspaper and the Sheriff’s Reports.
That all said, I didn’t enjoy the plot of this book as much – yes, it seemed a bit far-fetched that Lumby would become such a media hotspot, but I could handle that, I understand that when a famous painting goes missing something like that would happen.
My issue was with a missing barn. I just had a hard time with it and it felt as if things were really going a bit too far and trying too hard.
Also, as much as I loved Charlotte, the woman just seems made out of money and an easy way out in this book – I couldn’t wrap my mind around it.
Overall, the book was a fun read, just a bit too far-fetched for me to enjoy as much as I loved the first one.
