A review by blacksentai
A Case of Two Cities by Qiu Xiaolong

3.0

I really liked the beginning of this book when it was set in China more than when it moved to America. I wonder if that had to do with my general unfamiliarly with the working of Chinese bureaucracy and police work and me being very familiar with American police work. I do feel like the pacing definitely became less to my liking as we moved into the middle half of the book. The style of conversation definitely changed and I found it to be a bit less interesting. But ultimately it's a good book. I liked it.
