The hatred from the mc, the critiques of Japanese society and the shifts in perspectives all make this a very fun read. Probably a strong 7/10

Tim is a psychopath. 4HWW was a fun read and as someone who wasted a lot of time on emails, he gives good advice.

Hilarious and pretty wholesome, overall terrific book

Need to re-read it over again, really funny and dark, loved the relationships between parent-child

Police politics and press releases, a book on how the Japanese Police operates and its relationship to the press. Sometimes I forgot his daughter is missing tbh

-Fast paced and short
-thought the mc was a clown from the start - sex scene translation worse than Murakami
-amazing twist as usual from Keigo Higashino

- very interesting look into the Roppongi night life, Japanese Police, and Court System from a Western Perspective
-I enjoyed Parry's detailed approach toward Lucie and her family
-Minus a star for not using USD
-The Japanese Police's incompetence in this books is baffling
