KimmyM commented on KimmyM's review of Strange Houses
I loved the premise and the way the story makes use of so many visual clues like the various floorplans. It’s so creative and fun! And it immediately called to mind My House Walkthrough, a creepy little Youtube video that I love.
That said, the actual mystery here felt too convoluted for me to fully buy into in such a way that I could relax and enjoy the book. I found myself questioning too many things and the conversations between characters felt stilted. I don’t know if it’s me or the story or a cultural difference between Japanese mysteries and what I am accustomed to from North American mysteries, but this was a mixed read for me.
Overall though, the structure was fun and interesting enough that I do plan to read the other Uketsu book that I have (Strange Pictures).

Dramatic battles, tense political intrigue, unique world building...and is that maybe some romance I'm sensing? These books are not Romantasy but focus primarily on the SFF elements. Romance is a subplot and may not appear until later in the series, but when it does, you won't be disappointed.
