The Fox Wife: A Novel | Yangsze Choo
post image
Pickpick

This has been a standout read of the year. I absolutely loved everything about it. The narrative is told alternately between Snow, the fox wife, and Bao, the private investigator looking for her. The setting is China at the end of Empress Cixi's reign, as modernity and Western culture start to infiltrate China.

It's heavily interlaced with Chinese, Japanese, and Korean folklore.
Highly recommended 5⭐️

TheBookHippie Did you read this of hers, it‘s very good as well- 22m

An enjoyable thriller with good characters. The isolated situation of a stranded train added to the tension nicely.
Book 3 is complete for my #10beforetheend

My second C.J. Tudor thriller, and I‘m sure it won‘t be my last. As I learned more about the three different sets of characters stranded in blizzards, I started to suspect one of the twists, but I still had no idea where the story was going. I love books where the tiniest description can come back into play. Had me using the search function on my Kindle several times.

Another one down for #10BeforeTheEnd

#10BeforeTheEnd is shaping up for me. I‘m going to read that Control Unleashed book if it kills me! I‘ve had it on my #TBR for so long.

My last three fiction books should be fast reads. I‘m putting my audiobook of Dungeon Crawler Carl aside while I listen to my library Libby hold for the Marvellers, one of my #SnowedIn choices. But I know I‘ll get back to Carl. Princess Donut will not be ignored!

For now, I‘m reading the tagged ebook🦠❄️🏔️

My 2nd book selection for #10beforetheend is this amazing novel. Only 3 chapters in and I'm completely entranced. Disclaimer - it has nothing to do with foxes being my favourite mammal. 💙❄️🦊❄️💙
