This was an ok book for me. Too many plotlines, too many investigations. Everything did come together in the end but it was not half as satisfactory or enjoyable as the other books. I did like Yukawa & kyohei's mentor mentee kind of relationship. But Yukawa's genius & deciphering skills were not qui...
4.5 Review to come soon. But wow!!! What a story. Every time I guessed something I would be thrown off with new development. This was super interesting & wild! Must-read crime story. #malice #keigohigashino #MysterythrillerUpdated Review How long can somebody keep the darkness of their heart hidden?...
Woah!!!! What a mind wrangling book!!! This was a gripping, thrilling, confusing, awesome story. What seemed idiotic in the beginning seemed logical in the end. What seemed unbelievable seemed the only believable thing in the end. I probably have to read this again to soak in the nuances but
I went into this expecting a quick and enjoyable detective story but unexpectedly found a new favorite out of the Higashino mysteries I've read so far. Usually who committed the murder in his books is not the central problem — and sometimes even quite obvious from the get-go — and the main focus is ...
When Yoshitaka married his wife, Ayane, it was on the understanding that she would at some point become pregnant. It has now been a year of trying, and still no baby. Yoshitaka sees marriage without children as pointless, so he informs Ayane that the two of them are done. Not only that, but he alrea...
In the beginning of the story, a man who have been harassing his ex-wife was first injured by his own daughter. He fought back and the girl's mother kill this man in self-defense. The story go really weird real fast. The next door neighbor knew that they are in trouble and offered to dispose t...
"The Devotion Of Suspect X" is an original, surprising, thought-provoking crime novel set in Japan. It's one of the most satisfying reads I've had this year so far because it's fresh, it works on so many levels and it's entertaining. "The Devotion Of Suspect X" sets out to do something different t...
It would seem odd to say that what feels refreshing about this murder mystery is starting it without knowing who the criminal is. You might wonder, isn't that the whole point of mysteries, to find out who did it? But in the other two Higashino books that I've read before, the murderer's identity is ...
Another enjoyable mystery from Higashino. Just like in the first novel of his that I read, The Devotion of Suspect X, we know from the outset who the culprit is, but the mystery lies in how they did it and the reasoning behind this impossible murder. Because the crime is indeed impossible, the expla...
An intelligent and page turning mystery that doesn't need to rely on gimmicks to get the readers attention. Just a good old fashioned suspenseful mystery that is perfectly paced and with lots of twists and turns to keep the reader interested.Acclaimed bestselling novelist Kunihiko Hidaka is found b...
