✨ "Because nobody sniffs out wrongdoing quite like a Chinese mother with time on her hands."

Saying that I'm obsessed with this book might be an understatement. I simply loved everything about it! Just a couple of pages in and I was howling with laughter and less than 24 hours later, I was sad to reach the last page. It was such an enjoyable and flawless read that I never wanted it to end.

I adored all the characters, especially Vera! She reminds me so much of my mother, who is similarly very diligent in trying to keep up with the latest lingo and can whip up a mean lion's head 😂 I'm Chinese and nothing thrills me more in novels than accurate cultural representation + characters that I see myself in. As always, the author has nailed all of these perfectly.

Truly, there is nothing I didn't love about this heartwarming, captivating and highly bingeable book even though I guessed whodunit quite early on (but not the why).

I've said this before and I'll say this again: Jesse Q Sutanto never misses, regardless of what genre or age group she writes for. She has completely stolen my heart with Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers, now one of my favorite cozy mysteries and found family stories ever! ❤️
