pickI enjoyed this quirky Japanese thriller with serious Mr. Ripley vibes.
The Woman in the Yellow Cardigan is obsessed with The Woman in the Purple Skirt. Yellow Cardigan goes from observing Purple Skirt to finding deeper and deeper ways to entwine their lives.
While there isn‘t that intensity and fear that you find in the typical American thriller, this fast read still had me turning the pages.

Megabooks @Cinfhen thanks re: my shelves!! 😘 Light Perpetual sounds interesting, but I think Purple Skirt is more up my alley. 🤔 3y
Cinfhen It‘s on the #ManBooker21Longlist otherwise I would have probably skipped it 3y
Megabooks @Cinfhen ahhh yes!! I‘m not doing that this year. The list didn‘t really leap out at me like last year‘s. 🤷🏻♀️ that award hits me that way some years, and I generally don‘t force the issue. We‘ll see what I do with the National Book Award and Tournament of Books. 🤔 3y
