So after reading Blue Monday and being in two minds about how I feel about the ending, I decided to read the next book in the series, Tuesday’s Gone, and decided that… yeah I’m liking these books so far! Tuesday’s Gone starts off with a very strange case: a woman with mental illness is found… Read More Book Review: Tuesday’s Gone by Nicci French
This is quite unlike me, but I actually went and borrowed another Nicci French book after finishing The Unheard. I’m not sure why I did it, because I’ve got so much on the TBR (and physical books to read too!) but I guess I was really in the mood for a thriller. And that may… Read More Book Review: Blue Monday by Nicci French
I am doing a good job making a progress on the mystery-related stories on my TBR! I saw mystery-related because I didn’t think this really had the tropes of a mystery or a thriller, it was more like a character study in the guise of a mystery to me. What the Dead Know starts when… Read More Book Review: What the Dead Know by Laura Lipman
This is the last book that I bought at the church bazaar, and unsurprisingly, I’m regretting not getting more! But a friend did loan me two of her books, so I still have those and a lot of ebooks to read. I remember reading and really enjoying The Shadow of the Wind (Goodreads Review), so… Read More Book Review: The Angel’s Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
I’m pretty sure that I’ve read this a long time ago, but this was before I started writing down my reviews so I have absolutely no recollection of what I thought about this the first time I read it. And honestly, this felt like a new-to-me book which I loved so much. The third book… Read More Book Review: The Cruellest Month by Louise Penny
I found this book via Rainienutreads on Instagram and have been wanting to read it since! But I held back for a long time because for some reason, this library book doesn’t synch with my kobo! But eventually, the curiosity was too much and I ended up reading the whole thing on my phone even… Read More Book Review: A Baby’s Bones by Rebecca Alexander
My friend – the friend that asked me to come along to Eze when I first arrived in Nice – has been recommending books by Mary Stewart to me since I met her. However, because the Singapore library does not stock her ebooks (only paper copies) and because Kobo Singapore was trying to charge me… Read More Book Review: Nine Coaches Waiting by Mary Stewart
This is one of the books that have been on the TBR for over a year, which… is actually not that long compared to other books. But basically what I wanted to say is that I’ve been meaning to read this for a while! I didn’t borrow Rules for Perfect Murders earlier because I was… Read More Book Review: Rules for Perfect Murders by Peter Swanson
It’s been a while since I read a Japanese mystery, and I was pretty excited for this – especially since the cover uses the words “spine chilling”. Set in an ageing apartment for women, most of whom are also pretty elderly by the time the book is set, The Master Key is about a crime… Read More Book Review: The Master Key by Masako Togawa
This book has been on my TBR list for a really long time, but somehow I never picked it up until now, when I was craving for a quick and easy read. Archibald and the Blue Blood Conspiracy is a mystery set in a boarding school. Shortly before the new term starts, Archibald, the second… Read More Book Review: Archibald and the Blue Blood Conspiracy by Shermay Loh
