I just finished The Glass Demon by Helen Grant. It's a YA novel but I found it in the general fiction collection at the library, which, eh--it doesn't have a very YA-looking cover so I guess it can be forgiven. The conceit is okay (English girl's vain professor dad moves the family to Germany in search of a legendary set of stained glass windows; murders ensue) and the resolution has some damn fine imagery, but the prose plods pretentiously at points, the plot is stretched kinda thin, and I found most of the characters annoying. I gave it three out of five stars on Goodreads: a tick above mediocre, and I've read worse.
