Akimitsu Takagi

"Etsuko loves the shy, young lecturer who clumsily (albeit charmingly) courts her. Her family does not. His past is suspect - unthinkable for a suitor in Japan. They marry anyway. On their wedding night he is called away by an urgent phone call. By morning he is still missing."--BOOK JACKET.

Honeymoon to Nowhere

buny

Too tedious. The payoff also did not satisfy me. I think I'm too used to (and adore) Agatha Christie's method of writing her mysteries and interconnecting every single character under suspicion so intricately that the guessing and assuming and working out of the killer and the motive, which is always fun for me with the bouncing back of ideas exchanged otherwise felt redundant and tedious here because of a lack of exciting conclusion or motivation behind the murder(s). There was potential, w shorter length and cleaner execution but alas :[

My 100th book! Yay!!! I have never loved reading more ❤️‍🩹
