    Mallory Towers meets St Trinians...
  

*by @***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 November 2018*

When new girl Daphne Blake arrives at the exclusive St Rita’s Girls Boarding School for Spirited Girls, she finds nothing is quite as it seems. The school turns out to be a crumbling heap, where lessons are optional and the students are anarchic at best, criminal at worst! Though delighted to be offered the chance to be interviewed for the position of librarians assistant’s assistant, Daphne discovers that the librarian doesn’t really exist. Instead there is the librarians assistant, Emily Lime, a crime solving genius who’s looking for an assistant of her own & Daphne fits the bill. So Daphne with the help of George (the only boy in the boarding school) assist Emily in not only solving a crime & mystery or two but in also restocking the library in the process.With the feeling of an old fashioned classic along the lines of Enid Blyton but with a far more dark and mischievous streak, like St Trinians, The Book Case - An Emily Lime Mystery is a deliciously engaging story with a great boarding school setting. This funny and cleverly written book is full of memorable quirky characters, and the black & white illustrations compliment the story very well. A fun fast paced detective novel with plenty of twists and turns that will keep you guessing. A right rollicking 5⭐️ Read.

    A school story with books as the focus. Mystery and lots of genre staples, a feel of the modern and the nostalgic.
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 May 2018*

In the grand tradition of Blyton, Trebizon, even Harry Potter, the great 'school story' genre staples... we now have a mystery with the boarding school library at the heart of it (as Hermione herself would be proud).I've read Shelton before and liked him, though this is wildly different. The first in a series, as Daphne arrives at her new school and 'interviews' to become the library assistant... acutally no, the library assistant's ASSISTANT. Her 'boss' is Emily Lime, a supremely bossy student in a rather unusual school, a little like a junior St Trinian's, where pupils get up to all sorts at all hours.And it's into this setting that a mystery is mixed, one in which the smart Daphne will have to work with overbearing Emily.I'd only just finished another 'children in a mystery' story (set in a hotel) when starting this, so they did feel a little interchangable at times, though I loved the fact that books and libraries were the solutions (as well as the clues) to the plots. Daphne is likeable, though didn't stand out particular, Emily Lime is more memorable and didn't annoy too much as I wondered about at the start.Great school setting, a very unique establishment that I'd love to see more of, even from the perspectives of different students.I listened to the Audible version of this, which moved along nicely and would be enjoyed by listeners around 9-12. It should keep their attention.With thanks to Nudge Books for providing a sample copy.
