3✨ It was refreshing to read about ancient Japan. It included customs and norms of the time that were very interesting to see in a mystery story. There was a few intimate scenes that were a bit much for me. There was action and humor. I‘ll be continuing to the next book in the series.

It's been a while since I have done a monthly song journey. 80s music usually catches my attention 🥰
