‘Fantastically dark’ ERIN KELLY

The thrilling new novel of friendship and dangerous obsession from Asako Yuzuki, the award-winning author of the global sensation Butter.

Eriko really wouldn't mind being savaged, if it was her best friend doing the savaging …

Eriko's life appears perfect – devoted parents, pristine apartment and a high-flying job in the seafood division of one of Japan's largest trading companies. Her latest project, to reintroduce the controversial Nile perch fish into the Japanese market, is characteristically ambitious. But beneath her flawless surface she is wracked by loneliness.

Eriko becomes fascinated with a popular blog written by a housewife, Shoko. Shoko’s posts about convenience-store food and her messy home are the opposite of the typical manicured housewife. When Eriko tracks Shoko down at her favourite restaurant, Shoko is at first charmed by her new companion. But soon Eriko's obsession with Shoko begins to spiral out of control. How far will she go to hold on to the best friend she’s ever had?

Beautifully translated by Polly Barton, Hooked is a delicious exploration of food, loneliness and womanhood in contemporary Japan.

A most anticipated book in Vogue, Guardian, New York Times, The Times, Sunday Times Style, Elle, Stylist, Grazia and more.

Aww! Lesbian Hallmark movie in a book
Format: Kindle
Yes, its a lesbian hallmark movie in a book. And, yes, being that it's a "sweet" romance, there's no love-making. Sad. Normally I would forego the sweet romances but when these two authors come together it's always a good book. So I gave it a go. I have to say that I really didn't miss the love-making; it was really that good of a story. I'm surprised to say that. The characters were great but Grinchy Celeste holds a special place in my heart. And the way she and Natalie bicker I got the biggest kick out of. Truly enjoyed the book. Keep 'em coming TB and Miranda!

Just an all around pleasant read. I enjoyed the interplay between the two main characters and watching their relationship evolve. There was never a doubt about where the story was headed, and that's ok. Happy endings are a good thing!
