But my absolute favourites of the year so far?? Probably: Sheun-King's "You are Eating an Orange. You are Naked" Douglas Coupland's "Player One" Shion Miura's "The Great Passage" Durian Sukegawa's "Sweat Bean Paste" Honestly they're all criminally underrated. https://t.co/mLv6vy1Q8l

Silent Parade: A Detective Galileo Novel
Keigo Higashino
At the start of the year I was away on a work trip and I binged through murder mystery books. They were: "Silent Parade" & "Malice" both by Keigo Higashino (it's funny because I thought the latter was a sequel and whoops IT WAS NOT), but also Kwon Yeo-Sun's novel "Lemon". https://t.co/EzX8EOnpYX

The Supernatural Enhancements
Edgar Cantero
The other genre that defines my year is ARG/Puzzle-ish. Some stand-outs have been Terry Miles' "Rabbits", Edgar Cantero's "The Supernatural Enhancements" and (lol) Cain's Jawbone of course. I'm pretty sure for all of these I had to google "explained" after. https://t.co/PKUMXk98T5

Nemesis
Isaac Asimov
I also went on a bit of a space sci-fi one this year with James S.A. Corey's "Nemesis Games", Isaac Asimov's "Caves of Steel", Andy Weir's "Project Hail Mary", and I suppose also Tillie Walden's graphic novel "On a Sunbeam" counts too. https://t.co/EdCpRq8MUd
