Queen of the Tiles

A good book. The central mystery unfolds well and the writing is very solid. I am a bit let down by one aspect of it, but I think it’s just a constraint of the genre. I did like how it unpacked grief and that it was set in Kuala Lampur and incorporated a non binary character. It’s a quick enough read and fans of wordplay will enjoy it. But it just reminded me of the episode of Psych set at a spelling bee and I couldn’t think of much else beyond that. Also all the mentions of Malay food made me hungry.
