VERA WONG'S UNSOLICITED ADVICE FOR MURDERERS is typically a mystery-comedy genre. From my favorite author, Jesse Q Susanto, if I am not wrong, this is a fourth book of her I have been reading. Do I love it? Depends.
Meet Vera Wong, our main character, a grumpy granny who find a dead body in the teashop and starting to become a detective because the police did not great a good job, and she thinks he <Marshall> was being a murderer. When the type of asian grandomother solves the mystery, her style is become a straightforward person, and it makes the story funny. Vera's energy every chapter, even though we have a different point of view, Vera always shines. She has a strong image.
When Vera met other who related to the Marshall's dead, Vera invite and talk to them about that. It is annoying to other? Yes, a bit. But, who can't miss a delicious foods made by her? Everyone can't deny it.
The plot mainly focusing on the family-trope, even though I love hate relationships with vera character, but she is still lovely for the rest of them.
It is slow burn, and not talk too much about the kind of mystery things. Lower your standar, this one still gorgeous to read!
