Questo è il primo libro che leggo di questo autore (anche se ho sempre voluto leggere gli altri suoi libri) perché è quello che mi ispirava di più. Le vicende narrate nel romanzo si svolgono nel giro di circa vent’anni. La scrittura è fluida, semplice e scorrevole. Il libro si legge in poco tempo (nonostante le numerose pagine), anche se a causa dei troppi personaggi presenti a volte il lettore potrebbe avere difficoltà a ricordarsi chi sono. Purtroppo la lunghezza dei capitoli non aiuta molto in questo, perché io stessa mi sono spesso “persa” all’interno di essi. La suspense dura fino alla fine, perché solo alla fine l’autore svela tutti i misteri (anche se durante tutto il romanzo ci fa, poco per volta, scoprire qualcosa in più). Un bel thriller scritto da un autore giapponese e che ci permette di viaggiare in quel bellissimo paese. Assolutamente consigliato, nonostante la lunghezza che potrebbe un po’ spaventare. Un thriller totalmente diverso da quelli a cui siamo abituati ma non per questo meno interessante e coinvolgente.
My rating: 4.85
I badly needed something to keep me engrossed and away. I would say this book accomplished that with flying colors. Though I have my own grievance. The writer could have written the unwinding session of the mysteries in more details. I would not mind knowing more about the master plans of Ryo and Yukiho even if it would be a repitition of sort.(come on, Dan Brown does that! And thereby kills the thrill with a very deft hand of detail explanation (Oh, right. You’re not dan brown. But it would be great to know the picturesques of the murder scenes and more about all the perpetrations. (I don’t know why am I talking bracket within bracket)))
As always character names got me bit confounded at the beginning and eventually they started radiating cuteness in my mind as I was leafing through the pages. Judge for yourself- Read the names several times and u may feel it too:
Yukiho karasawa
Ryo kirihara
Detective sasagaki
Nami
Natsumi
Eriko
Noriko
Matsuura
