'LaBrava' is another excellent Elmore Leonard crime novel. It's about a photographer who gets involved in a mystery. The book is full of Leonard's unique brand of dialogue and his ability to create a sense of place. You can really feel like you're in the seedy underbelly of Miami as you read the story. There are a lot of complex relationships between the characters that add to the overall intrigue of the novel.

Sure. 'Freaky Deaky' is a great one. It has a really convoluted plot with lots of interesting characters. It's set in Detroit and involves former radicals turned into something else entirely. It's a fast - paced read with lots of twists and turns.

I'd also recommend 'Killshot'. The story of a couple who are targeted by a hitman is gripping. Elmore Leonard's writing style makes the characters feel very real. You get a sense of the danger they are in and the lengths they will go to survive. The way he describes the interactions between the different characters, especially the cat - and - mouse game between the couple and the hitman, is really engaging.

Thank you for Waiting, Mister Tang!

Thank you for Waiting, Mister Tang!

Forced out by her step-mother, she was driven to desperation and had no way of surviving other than to sign herself away and marry herself into a rich and influential family. Three years into the marriage, her wealthy husband had spoiled her to heavens. The only problem was that they had no inheritors in their family. Inside the luxurious mansion, Pei Qiqi angrily threw a stack of newspaper onto the man, “The article is claiming that I am a hen who cannot lay eggs! But Tang Yu, it’s you who has issues!” The man put down the newspaper and agreed to what his young wife was saying, “Why would they write false information? Your zodiac is the pig!” “Tang! Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!
