Jul. 17th, 2024 08:03 pmDays at the Morisaki Bookshop by Satoshi Yagisawa
Fun, quick read about a girl who moves into a room above her uncle’s used bookshop after she finds out her boyfriend is marrying someone else and quits her job. Takako starts out understandably depressed, but her uncle and the bookshop get her back on her feet. Then her uncle’s long estranged wife shows up, and Takako has a chance to return the favor and help him out.
The Brides of High Hill by Nghi Vo
Delightfully creepy. Pay attention as you go, the clues were there…
Technically book 5 in a series, but works on its own.
A Nest of Vipers by Harini Nagendra (Bangalore Detectives Club #3)
Kaveri Murthy’s latest mystery unfolds against the tense backdrop of the independence movement and the Prince of Wales’ 1921-1922 visit to India. (The 'lady detective' is very sharp when it comes to crime and helping protect the independence movement, but slightly less sharp about matters slightly closer to home…)
