Welcome to Litsy!

I did not really like or understand this book. And I am not a huge fan of this much age gap

I couldn‘t finish this book. The « hunter‘s log » made my skin crawl. I had an inkling about the ending, so I flipped through the last few chapters to confirm that hunch.

Decent crime fiction. This was a random library pick because it‘s an Edgar winner, has a 4.42 on GR, and Dennis Lehane recommended it. I was curious about the Hard Case Crime covers, and they all seem to be like this! (There‘s almost no sex in this one. 😙)

From the blurb, this sounds like it has vibes of one of my favourite TV shows, Midnight Diner. It's set in a taxi rather than a café, but the episodic stories of Tokyo's late-night/early-morning denizens resonates. Fingers crossed 🤞

1. Forget-me-nots, primroses, gerbera, snowdrops

2. The cover of the German edition has flowers on the cover and reminds me of spring. The flowers, the colours - this cover feels like the essence of spring to me. 😊

Pretty good so far!😊

A freebie😍😍😍

Really enjoyed my second #roll100 read for March. Very, very weird, and at times hard to keep track of what was really, and what was a dream, a pretty wild ride!

Detective Kaga Book 2: I was so impressed by Malice the 1st book in this series and this one I also really loved. It has a really inventive structure which lifts it out of the ordinary and made me feel like I was wandering through a hidden gem of a neighbourhood in Tokyo. I found the mystery really satisfying and the tone is warm without being saccharine. I think Higashino is one of my new favourite authors.
