Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers

This was a cute read. I need a visit from the Auntie distribution center, though. Vera was a great character, confident and pushy and unashamed of who she is. I really need to take a look into Chinese tea now. It was an easy read and didn't have a whole lot of complexity to it. This was more cozy, I didn't get tension through the book at all. I knew who the murderer was about a quarter of the way through the book and I don't know if that detracted from some of the tension or not. Still cute, and really probably a great read for someone who's trying to venture into the realm of mystery books.

Sooooo. I found this pretty enjoyable, except that there was more discussion of (emotional) abuse and shitty asshole stuff than I'd thought. It's in a good way, though. So. I think this is a pretty nice story. Just. The epilogue has something that irritates me so much!!

Few friends can say, like the characters in Jesse Q. Sutanto’s highly entertaining novel Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers, that what brought them together was a murder. Fewer still, I think, could say that a murder was when their lives started to change for the better...
