A review by elfit
Murder on Bamboo Lane by Naomi Hirahara
3.0
This was a different genre for me and perhaps my second or third mystery book. I liked the concept and the geography of L.A., the mini twist, and the fact that the main character is a half Japanese female. (I'm half Japanese and it's great to find something on that level to relate to the character with. Not something that happens often for me.)
Sometimes her antics made me roll my eyes and sometimes her friends made me wonder why she hung out with them but for all it's worth I enjoyed this light read, and the doggies.
Who I didn't really like was Detective Williams. He didn't seem very appealing to me but according to all the characters he is a looker and pretty fast at getting the main character interested.
In the end I will probably read the next book to see what new trouble Ellie will get into.
