Gia Chevis

Welcome to this week’s installment of Likely Stories on KWBU. My name is Gia Chevis, and I confess that I watch what is probably an unhealthy number of cozy murder mystery shows, mainly British and British-adjacent. I am absolutely the target audience for A Case of Mice and Murder, the first novel in Sally Smith’s newish detective series.

Nearly every time my husband sees me reading he asks, “Reading one of your “happy” books again?” To be fair, he may have a point. For example, listening to the audiobook of a novel that unpacks the emotional trauma of four generations of Filipino men, is possibly not the most uplifting way to spend a drive through the plains of the Texas Panhandle.

If it has taken you an annoyingly long time to learn that perfection isn’t a healthy goal and getting help isn’t a sign of a character flaw, then you might empathize with Rika’s journey in Butter, A Novel of Food and Murder by Asako Yuzuki.
