A book about wrongful conviction and capital punishment with an engrossing investigation.
An engrossing book that tackles the topics of retribution, justice and mental illness.
I finished my first novel in Chinese. I read in Traditional Chinese, and my e-book could display the Zhuyin, which made reading much easier.
Even though I found the main character difficult to understand, I really enjoyed this book for its engrossing plot and interesting topics.
Not my favourite Jun Ikeido but still an engrossing read that tackles typical problems that bank employees are facing before turning into a real mystery.
A mystery book for children that is both easy to read and engrossing. Recommended for language learners!
Time loop and murder mystery… this book sounded so promising, yet I ended up being disappointed with it.
A collection of linked short stories with an overall light tone. Maybe my least favourite Higashino read so far, but still a relaxing and entertaining read.
Update on the books that I have tried to read, am reading, and will read in Chinese.
Even though this book won the Mystery Writers of Japan Award, it is hard to classify it as “mystery”. It is a fast pace thriller/adventure with a good dose of violence and suspense. I personally enjoyed it much more than I expected.
