Book review: 『容疑者Ｘの献身』 by Keigo Higashino
The Devotion of Suspect X is one of my favourite books of crime fiction ever! Highly recommended!
Book review: 『ファーストラヴ』by Rio Shimamoto
This novel won the Naoki Prize in 2018. Even though the plot was interesting, I was not able to feel involved in the story and did not like the characters.
