I love a legal procedural, especially from the defense pov!

My lack of spatial understanding is working against me in the descriptions of the island, lol

Incredibly gripping!

Hoping to sneak in a little fantasy before my next crime read!

Love me a secret society!

For once and for all, Messi and CR7 are both terrible people who do not deserve to be looked up to, especially by youngsters!

Am I reading this primarily because it's Swedish like my sole Etsy Witch client Viktor Gyokeres? Hell yes!

Tbh, I didn't think there'd be so much reading involved, lol

Incredibly engaging start!

Having a tough time sitting down and concentrating on this but it's definitely been interesting so far!

Even tho I've been an Arsenal fan for 29 years, I'm finally reading this now and sighing "Why are men?"

That kale-leek quiche is so legit!

Ngl, I love the snappy "this t-shirt is raising a lot of questions" cadence of the title, lol

I want biang biang noodles so bad now, lol

Why tf did I tell the publicist I'd downloaded the NetGalley when I did no such thing, argh.

Sigh.

Some parts v relatable, some parts feel overdrawn.

Pausing to catch up with other work reading!

Brought this bad boy with me to jury duty!

Always soothing to immerse myself in Lynn Cahoon's writing.

Lol, the Goodreads blurb is joking, right? It's pretty clear from the get go that Drew is a psychopath

That's one way to start a murder mystery!

This is giving me all the growing up in the tropics feels!

I have completely forgotten what happened at the end of Book 1 but boy howdy did I laugh at and with Darius' long-suffering dad.

Ngl, I was wholly invested from learning that Shyla and Jinh were exes. Love me some diversity rep!

Ooh, it's set in DC and Rockville? How interesting!

It probably shouldn't bother me as much as it does that this was clearly written by someone British but the occasional language lapses are just so jarring!

Finally have all the ingredients for the candy but super dragging my feet on making it, gaaaaah.

I wonder if they localized further after putting out the proof I'm reading.

Lol, damn, girl.
