Loved it. I'd heard that it wasn't as good as Concourse but I was delighted to be back in Lydia's head. If this is the worst Rozan can do I'm really looking forward to the rest of the series.

(this is book 3 in the lydia chin and bill smith series)


I flew through this one. I officially prefer the books from Lydia’s perspective, she’s just so.... sigh. Dreamy. She’s so sweet and bright and stubborn. Her arc in this book was a lot of fun and I love the way she and her mother interact.
adventurous

Another great third, with more delightful and witty prose, this time in the Lydia Chin/Bill Smith series.  This in Lydia’s voice again—the mystery involves a confluence of the American-Chinese world with the high fashion world—when L & B undertake a simple job which goes haywire.  We see Lydia trying to ignore her feelings for Bill, and meet another brother—Andrew, and his male lover, Tony.  I love this series [2021–especially the odd numbered ones, which are in Lydia’s voice, which I consider her best].
