This book was recommended to me by a good friend who's previous recommendations have always hit the mark, so I was excited for this one! Strange Pictures follows a pregnant woman's sketches on a seemingly innocuous blog, but conceals a chilling warning. A sketch made by a murder victim in his final moments leads an amateur sleuth wannabe reporter down a rabbit hole.  It's structured around nine childlike drawings, each holding a disturbing clue. The author, Uketsu, invites us to piece together the mystery behind each and the over arching backstory that connects them all. It's mystery, it's horror, it's one of Japan's most talked about contemporary authors - It's worth a read! ----- You can find out more about the book on [StoryGraph](https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/d299f4ac-a4c4-40ad-ab6e-192a155068e7). I’m trying to push myself as both a reader and a writer by writing a review for the books I've read. #books #bookreview
