The Book of Speculation, the debut novel by Erika Swyler, is dark and atmospheric. Magic, mystery, and family history make up the story. The main character is a librarian, and the story centers on an antique book. I feel like I should have loved it. I didn't, but find it difficult to explain why. It's not bad, but I am left with the idea that something is missing from this story.
