Reading Wednesday

• What are you currently reading?
I just started Cold Fire but I’m feeling pretty fickle lately.

Will someone please tell me if this book contains suicide or attempted suicide? Lately every fucking thing I pick up has it, & I need some time away from such content.


• What did you recently finish reading?
The Devotion of Suspect X by Keigo Higashino (translated to English by Alexander O. Smith) - I put this on hold on the library because a reviewer at a manga blog I read (probably Manga Bookshelf) reviewed the more recent novel.
I sometimes have a hard time with the way Japanese fiction translates into English (phrases can translate in overly descriptive ways that make me hate it in English?!), but that fell away for me within a few pages for this book.
It’s a mystery, but also not, & hard to discuss without giving things away.
Trigger warnings for domestic violence, murder, & attempted suicide.

Kaze Hikaru, volume 2 - I liked this volume quite a bit more than the first one. ( Spoilers )
