I love the escalating conflict between L and Light. I enjoy that most of the plot is the two of the psychologically analyzing each other while working both for and against the other. It’s an interesting relationship dynamic to explore! 

The introduction of a second Kira was a great hook into the next book!

I loved it!! The cat and mouse game between Light and L is so compelling. 

I like that they introduced a second Kira (and I LOVE that L instantly knew it was a fake and seemed to actively prefer the real Kira to the fake one), but I’m a little disappointed this new Kira isn’t as intelligent as Light or L. I guess it’ll be interesting to see what a more impulsive person does with the Death Note, but I hope she actually presents as a challenge to Light or L. Esp after Light killed that female FBI agent so easily, I don’t want to see another female character treated as harmless.

Light: stop yanking me around, Ryuga. Think about what it feels like to be suspected of being Kira.
L:…
L: that feels terrible

I love him

Side note: how does Light’s family not hear him talking to/yelling at Ryuk when he’s in his room..?
