These Japanese thrillers are so addicting. The decency: no cursing, no swearing. Just people talking and eating delicious food and in the mean time solving murder mysteries filled with twists. Quite the comfort read to me!

Tamra Must check out! 1w

LeahBergen I love good food in books so much 😆 1w

BarbaraBB @Tamra It‘s a series. If you‘re interested in these quiet atmospheric detective series I would start with

Amiable Hugs to you —and to your mom. We have a very close friend who has frontotemporal dementia and we‘ve been watching him steadily decline for the past 7 years. It‘s heartbreaking to lose loved ones piece by piece. 🙁 2w

dabbe So sorry about your mom. Sending 💛🤎🧡 to you, your mom, and your family as you cherish your previous moments with her. 2w

CindyMyLifeIsLit So sorry about your mom. I went through that with my mom, as well. It‘s a terrible disease and we mourn as we watch them forget more and more. If it‘s any comfort (it was for me), my mother was happy. She wasn‘t aware of what was happening (after a certain point) and was just content with being around her loved ones. It comforted me that she wasn‘t suffering. I hope it does you, as well. ❤️ 2w

BarbaraBB @LeahBergen @Leftcoastzen @Ruthiella @Librarybelle @BiblioLitten @Amiable @Aims42 @rebcamuse @dabbe Thank you so much for your comments. It means a lot 💝 2w

BarbaraBB @CindyMyLifeIsLit thank you for reaching out! I think my mom is too, most of the time, fortunately. It is just when she can‘t remember how to do ordinary things as how to undress or use her telephone, she becomes sad and frustrated and that‘s heartbreaking 💔 2w

Lesliereadsalot One of the things from going through this with my mother and mother-in-law, play music on your phone from your mom‘s era. That was something they both seemed to love. 💕 1w

BarbaraBB @Lesliereadsalot Thanks! I‘ve tried that before. My mom used to love French chansons (!) but her hearing os deteriorating as well. I will try again though, haven‘t tried it lately! 1w

For me this was the first in a series featuring the intriguing “Dr Galileo”, physics professor & police consultant. Thank heavens the book included 1 1/2 pages of 18 character names & a descriptive sentence for each! I constantly referred to it throughout my reading.
Skeletal remains of a young woman who went missing 3 years earlier are discovered,leading to an investigation. The suspect was tried & released 20 years ago for lack of evidence🔽

kspenmoll 🔼In a similar case. In the more recent case, the same suspect is not tried due to lack of concrete proof. Some of the characters band together to take matters into their own hands. Any idea for which in the series I should read next? #serieslove2023 (edited) 2y

TheSpineView Great job 💙📖📘📚 2y

Tonight‘s read.#justtherightbook compliments of RJ Julia Booksellers in Madison CT. This is my first introduction to Detective Galileo & I am hooked!

jlhammar I really enjoy Higashino. I've only read three so far. Devotion of Suspect X is probably my favorite, but Malice and Salvation of a Saint were also good. Looking forward to this one! 2y

BarbaraBB I read the same ones as @jlhammar did but haven‘t heard of your one. Stacking! 2y

kspenmoll @jlhammar @BarbaraBB This is my first, so I will read backwards but so far it‘s sooooo good! 2y

I‘m a fan of Keigo Higashino and this latest in the ‘Detective Galileo‘ series did not disappoint. Yukawa, the sleuthing physicist and friend of Chief Insp Kusanagi once again stepped in to help the police solve a seemingly impossible murder. Although not a character driven story, it‘s still a gripping ‘how-dun-it‘.

MamaGina Love this series! 🤓 4y

EvieBee It was so good! 4y

EvieBee @MamaGina me too! 4y

CaitlinR Just put the first in the series on hold. Thanks for the recommendation! 4y

This book was so good and worth the wait! As always, I would have never guessed the ending. I started the book and this puzzle last night and here I am. Book finished and puzzle nearly done. This is addicting. Also David Shih is one of my all time favorite narrators. Swoon. #japan #audiopuzzling

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

BarbaraBB Love both! 4y

EvieBee @BarbaraBB It‘s the best combination! 😄♥️ 4y

In Silent Parade, a beautiful and musically gifted young girl disappears. Her remains are found three years later among the ashes of a burned out house. There was a suspect who kept returning to taunt the girls family but was never indicted due to lack of evidence. This prime suspect ends up dying during a popular annual street festival. Chief Inspector Kusanagi turns to Detective Galileo for answers.

BarbaraBB Wow, a new book in the series! 4y

suvata @BarbaraBB Yes, but it doesn‘t come out until December 14 … only a few more days. 4y

EvieBee I finally have my copy! Now to read it. It‘s been so long… 4y
