Butter
by Asako Yuzuki
I am a big fan of Japanese fiction, but this really is something special. Loosely based on the true story of a serial killer who allegedly beguiled lovers with her wonderful cooking before killing them, this is also a fascinating exploration of modern Japanese culture. I have even picked up some recipe tips!

Olive, Again
by Elizabeth Strout
I have really enjoyed revisiting Olive, now that she is older and her life has had major changes. The characters that interact with Olive are so beautifully drawn that you feel you know them. I also love the fact that she still pulls no punches!
