Onto the deductions

Happy rebirthday to me

The Locked Room Lord aint shit. I might actually finish this giant ass book! LETS GOOOOOO

Chapter II of the detective part down. Finally crossed the 50 threshold! I don't know if i should be impressed at how much i read or terrified by the fact that i still have that amount left. But hey, im having fun, even with my glacial pace, so its good. Probably.

Finished the locked room chapters! Im glad to be moving on to the next part of the story. The locked rooms were great vignettes but my slow JP read speed and the massive amount made progress slow. + Im just very excited to see all the JDC detectives in action

Locked Room ranking:
16>8>19>4>10>7>14>18>9>1>12>5>15>11>13>2>6>3

PS, BGM's been Morning Glory by Oasis since the start, basically the JDC theme for me by now

Read the 7th locked room. Always impressed at the variety of characters portrayed. Some were so engaging I almost hope we'd hear from them again later (I'm just assuming they'll never appear again outside of their respective chapter, tho I guess I might be wrong).

Haven't been bored so far, but I do hope we mix up the formula or start hearing more about the JDC soon. I wonder if these won't get old by the 19th one.

Finished After the Unlocking (Post-matter)  and "Ocean" - Post-writing.

Also finished Cosmic: End of Century Detective Myth.

Can't believe it's finally over, it doesn't feel real. Damn, finishing a book hasn't made me cry because of the fact that it finished. A masterpiece.

Full review in a few days.

Finished Deduction X: The Legend of the Locked Room.

Just the post matter and afterword left. What an experience...

Finished Deduction IX: The Truth of the Locked Room.

Okay, my deduction was quite not correct, however, deduction 10 may make it closer to what I deducted, hyped to read the last deduction.

Done with my Deduction. https://twitter.com/AkutagawaKakuzo/s... (big spoilers).

Now I can finally finish this book

Finished Deduction VIII: The Tragedy of the Locked Room.
Fucking amazing.
Also, just reached the challenge to the reader, time to write a schizo deduction and post it on twitter to make a fool of myself when it turns out I'm so wrong. Hype.

Done with Deduction VII: The Collapse of the Locked Room.
Pretty good pretty good very good, quite amazing.
I can feel the ending in the air.
Just one more deduction chapter before I get to the challenge to the reader and go full schizo writing my deduction. Hype

Finished Deduction VI: The Myth of the Locked Room. Probably my favorite deduction chapter so far. I'm quickly approaching the challenge to the reader. I'm getting mentally prepared to go full schizo writing a deduction essay.

Finished Deduction V: The Departure of the Locked Room. Pretty great chapter, the end was pretty hype.

I wanted to get the link for my year in books from last year, instead, I think I shared it with all my Goodreads friends. I'm such a boomer with technology.

Finished Deduction IV: The Curse of the Locked Room.
It was nice, happy that I could read a deduction so fast. I'm still flabbergasted at how still so far in the book Ryuusui still keeps introducing such an insane amount of new characters.

Deduction III: The Deciphering of the Locked Room, was also great. Just six more deduction chapters left

Finished Deduction II: The Seal of the Locked Room, it had a pretty tedious "book inside a book" kinda deal, it was boring but the ending was actually quire good. At the end I did like the chapter a lot.

Just dragged myself along the most tedious subchapter so far. Don't do this again Ryuusui
