The Grimm Legacy by Polly Shulman
Elizabeth, the unloved stepchild and new kid in school, has no friends and not much fun in her life until she takes a job as a page at the New York Circulating Material Repository-a lending library for significant objects rather than books. Down in the basement are items collected by the Brothers Grimm as part of their fairy tale research: magic carpets, talking mirrors, dancing slippers, silk purses made from sow ears and more. But something is wrong with the magic in the items...and Elizabeth's coworkers are the main suspects.
A light mystery in a delightful setting that will charm the (magical) socks off of library staff and book lovers. Note that many of the illustrations are correctly cataloged!
No sex or cussing or bloodshed. A little bit of romance, a few kisses and some magic! Recommended ages 14 to adult.
