I should have waited for the shortlist and hibernated this book. I'd be very surprised if it makes it, as I really struggled with it and could have bailed on it if it hadn't made it.

Librarybelle Oh dear! I had recently splurged and picked up a copy on the strength of a virtual author talk I saw her do. 2d
jenniferw88 @Librarybelle, you may like it! I just know very little about this period, and it was very heavy going. Shorter chapters may have helped. 2d
RamsFan1963 I wanted to read this, but I've seen a lot of negative reviews. If you want to know more about Henry IV, I'd recommend reading Dan Jones's Henry V. It covers the end of Richard II reign, Henry IV seizing the throne, and leads on into Henry V reign as king. 2d
youneverarrived Hmm, good to know. It does look heavy going and it‘s more of a chunkster than I realised. Think I‘ll concentrate on the others before this. 6h

If you go into this book expecting a murder mystery, you'll be disappointed, but as a contemporary look at Japan's expectations of women, it's quite good.

BarbaraBB Agree 💯 I enjoyed the Japanese atmosphere 2w
CarolynM I‘ve just finished this too. The information about women in Japan was the best of it. 2w

ShelleyBooksie I'd love to hear what made it so-so. Was it slow paced? 3w
jenniferw88 @ShelleyBooksie medium. It's a high so-so/low pick - I think I wanted more definite answers as to who did it/what really happened. If you liked The Five by Hallie Rubenhold, you might enjoy it better. 3w

I just couldn‘t get into this one. However, I think if the right person would read it, it would be a good book. I really wanted to love it and there‘s a cliffhanger at the end, but I don‘t think my curiosity will ever be strong enough to pick up the next one. Still thankful for #booked2021 for pushing me to read outside my comfort zone #latinxauthor #seriesread #litsyatoz #c

Cinfhen Glad you pushed yourself to try something new….sorry it didn‘t work for you 3y
BarbaraTheBibliophage I get that. This should‘ve been I‘m wheelhouse and I still didn‘t like it. But some people did and the author has already written a few more in the series. Such is reading! 3y
TheSpineView It happens. You can't like every book published! 3y
