A very good novel, but it was a bit difficult for me to read. Because I can't understand the house plans, and I can't distinguish those intricate Japanese names, but the plot is really good.
I was prepared to be frightened by the horror and horror at the end, but the ending was good; At the end of the movie, when people are feeling warm and relieved, another perspective and solution are suddenly revealed, which makes people tremble and send chills down their spines. Tie Q, tie Q. The overall reading experience is very good and very immersive and immersive. Especially the architectural drawings are constantly repeated, key points are circled, and displayed from multiple angles, which eliminates the trouble of flipping back and forth. It is also very clear and easy to understand. Finished reading at 16:41 on July 5, 2026
It's not bad, it's all connected, but it's a little scary and a bit brain-burning after watching it. The finale didn't explain Xijiang's intentions...
It's very interesting. Different from other detective mystery novels, this author is very good at combining picture narratives, making the pictures "part of the story" and at the same time good at various narrative tricks, (montage-style lies) and good at reversal.
The wonderful reversal reasoning, the pull on human nature in the second half and the speculation about the real murderer are all very touching. The only thing that will be criticized is that the description of brainwashing education and money bribery in the old era is a bit blunt and incompatible with the new era, but the flaws are still intact. Nice! Stay tuned and look forward to when the second volume of Yang Persimmon will be released.
A very short novel that can be read in a few dozen minutes, suitable for relaxing in your spare time. A very novel mystery novel that combines step-by-step guessing and reasoning with house plans. Because I personally like to look at house plans. When I was a child, I would hold the advertising paper distributed by the sales office and study it for a long time, so this book has a mysterious appeal to me. But after reading the strange house in the book for a long time, I really felt like I was horrified by it. (As a result, now I am under the quilt and dare not go to the toilet [I am about to cry]) Through dialogue, readers are led to deduce clues together, giving the reader an immersive feeling when reading. When the characters in the book are surprised, they will all say "eh", and the content of "eh" in the book is extremely high. Even if I, the King of Heaven, enter this book, I still have to say "Hey" before leaving. It feels so joyful. The motive for the murder is indeed a bit ridiculous. How can such a big family continue to this day? [What] But the husband's love for his sister in the book is really great. If there were no so-called family rules, they would definitely be a happy family. It's worth reading. There is no complicated reasoning. The combination of pictures and text is easy to understand. If you can reason it out in advance, you will feel full of accomplishment [Thinking] Interesting.
It's so well written, a little scary, and the angle is quite novel.
The plot is coherent and very fascinating. No one would have thought that all this was actually caused by the ridiculous "murder" incident caused by the distribution of power and family disputes between half-brothers many years ago. I think the length is not very long, and there are illustrations to assist. One second I thought I couldn't understand it, and the next second I can see the illustrations. It is a type that can be read in one read.
It looks good. It only uses a floor plan to reason, and there is not so much information added later. The audience can also participate in the reasoning. It feels great. The reversal in the later stage is also good, and I personally don't find it too stiff. I enjoyed reading it in one go. After finishing 1, I went straight to 2. I liked it very much.
The full text has a total of 50,000 words and takes 37 minutes to read. The length is short and concise, the narration is concise and neat, and the ending is extremely thought-provoking and left with endless meaning. This article starts with the strange house plan, leads to more related design drawings, and slowly unfolds the story that has been hidden for many years. Rather than putting it in the mystery category, I think it is more suitable to label it suspense. Reasoning is not the focus, but more attention is paid to the matters involving several house owners. The truth is also very Japanese (derogatory). It is better to treat fake rituals and inheritance battles as ghost stories (laughs). What's rare is that Keita Ayano and even Ayano's father can be called "good people", which makes the atmosphere of this book inexplicably sunny and cheerful, and Momoya is really a good baby. ₍ᐢ·ᴗ·ᐢ₎
"The Mystery of the Strange House" centers on a bizarre building that violates the laws of physics, subverting the logical framework of traditional detective novels. As the investigation deepens, rational explanations collapse one by one, and spatial confusion and witness contradictions form a cognitive maze. In the end, the novel refuses to give a reasonable answer, forcing readers to face the limitations of human understanding, and completes a profound deconstruction of the certainty of reality in the absurd, with a long and thought-provoking aftertaste.
After reading it, there is a twist at the end. The story is very logically described and accompanied by pictures, which is very intuitive. I have read nearly two thousand books on Tomato, and this is the first one I have read completely. It can be seen that this book is very attractive.
It's such a special story. I first added it to my bookshelf in December 2024. I finally decided to read it this afternoon. I thought it was a collection of short stories, but I didn't expect it to be a short, but hair-raising novella (can I read it in more than an hour)? From the beginning, I thought it was a cruel, murderous serial killer, to the analysis of the floor plan, I got cold sweats on my back several times, and from time to time I felt like there was a second person in the room. When I read it, it was dark in the afternoon and the brightness was not too scary. However, by the end of the story, it was already dark. I was so scared that I sent a message to a friend to gain courage before turning on the light. Regarding the series of brainwashing curses, it's actually quite the same. In addition to the ignorance of the listeners, there is also constant fueling and hatred of each other. Really, there is a reason behind everything. Oops, it's a pretty good story. I was prepared to read it for a few hours, but in fact it only lasted about an hour and a half, so I could wash away the worries, bad moods, and negative emotions of the day. I have to rush to watch the second part.
Easy chair forensics has been used in architectural design in new ways. I really like the reasoning of this book, it feels very solid. This opens up a new idea for every potential writer of mystery novels: writing based on your own professional knowledge can make a difference in your easy chair or in your original style. As for the family story in it, I feel that it would not be a hindrance if it were included. I also read a few popular daily recommendations in recent years, and they all scored seven or eight, which is embarrassing. This one's score of 6.6 Surprised me. This shows that the ratings of reasoning works are really ineffective as a reference for personal book selection.
It's a very good-looking and interesting mystery novel. The pictures in the book can make readers more immersed in the situation. The ending is open-ended. I like it even more. However, the designer in the book gives people a prophetic feeling. The very bold associations he said are all correct. It is a bit of a God's perspective, but the logic is rigorous, which is not harmful. It is a very good short story.
This book really surprised me. I thought it was a bit boring when I first read the first few pictures, but when I read Chapter 4, the ending was really reversed again and again, especially the words Awahara said, it was really a new aspect of thinking. The content is probably that two drawings of houses lead to a family's bad habits that have been passed down for generations. It's quite ironic, right? Qing Tai is really a warrior of pure love. I love him so much that he can give up his life for Ling Nai. But the names here, including the husband's surname, are a bit confusing. You really need to sort out the relationship between the characters.
The horror atmosphere is really well rendered. Even in broad daylight, I feel chills on my back. The way of reasoning with the help of floor plans is very novel and easy to understand. It is a short and concise mystery novel. Maybe I will pay more attention to the structure of house floor plans in real life in the future [making a face]
It's very interesting and shocking, with a lot of twists and turns, and the clues are fair. You can make inferences while watching it. It's the ending of oe that left me stunned for a while. It's really good to watch. I feel like I'm full of discussion after reading it. I must read it with my friends. Anyway, I feel uncomfortable holding it back now.
The reasoning that combines floor plans is very novel. It is very suitable for lovers of horror and mystery novels. The ending feels a bit abrupt. The final reasoning is too compact and it is hard to turn around for a while. There is a lot of information.
There is a twist of suspense at the end, which is super cool! The language is straightforward and easy to understand with the pictures. You don't need to use your brain throughout the whole process. Just follow the plot and you will feel a chill in your back as you did when watching The Grudge (but it's not as scary as The Grudge_(´ཀ`‖ ∠)_)
It's quite exciting. Although the logic of this book has been criticized a lot, it is indeed a very popular piece among reasoning works using house structures, so I read it. Frankly speaking, it is indeed the kind of logic that makes people speechless, but the core floor plan setting is very good, and it is still worth a look.
This book is really wonderful, with interlocking links and well-founded reasoning. Just based on a house plan, you can conceive of so many stories behind it and even lead to such a shocking story of a century-old curse. . . Too strong
Oh my god, I read it in one sitting at night. It was very immersive. It was so well written! There are many suspense stories with twists and turns, twists and turns, and every twist makes me think about it with great fear. I was so frightened that I broke into a cold sweat😰😰 while reading it, and I shivered several times. Moreover, the structural diagram of the house is also clearly marked, and the author is so considerate. Like ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧.
The writing is super gripping. I have read both the strange house and the strange paintings. It is both reasonable and unexpected.
The plot twists and turns in the back, I really recommend it. I felt particularly flexible in the previous part of the house structure speculation. Really, I was really fascinated. My vocabulary is really not good. I think what I say sounds like a human machine. Hello everyone, I am a human being, not a human machine.
The plot is smooth and enjoyable to watch in one sitting Reasoning involves architecture, reasoning about floor plans is solid Rotten family rules, bound people, unable to be free Yuki is lucky to be supported by her whole family Keita and Ayano's family are all very good people, and this seems to be the best ending they can have. Momo is surprising, she is really a good kid The final twist is also very scary to think about. It has an open ending. When will the two families repay each other's grievances? I still hope that Xijiang can welcome a new life.
The plot is designed to be very suspenseful, with twists and turns, and every twist is in a place I didn't expect. Because a few floor plans of a house revealed the terrifying family rules passed down from generation to generation, and also incorporated real-life details. After reading it, I felt a chill in my back and couldn't recover in a short time. But it's a pity that there is no second volume of this book, which is a bit of a pity. After all, we can't have too many suspense stories like this.
On July 12, 2025, I finished reading the Japanese suspense mystery novel "The Mystery of the Strange House". The plot setting around the floor plan of the house is really eye-catching. In the first 200 pages of the story, the suspense about the house has always kept the reader's appetite, making people unable to stop and wondering what the ending will be. There is no doubt that this is a very successful suspense mystery novel. As for the ending, I won't spoil it here. I highly recommend everyone to read it!
A short and concise mystery sketch, the floor plan is the biggest feature of this book series. This book is not so much a reasoning as it is the inheritance of the dark side of a paranoid family. It is twisted and weird. At the moment when the "curse" was originally thought to have been interrupted, it was passed on again in a different way. It is indeed a "curse", and it is indeed quite Japanese-style, but the innocent children of this generation are really pitiful.
This series is really good, but why are there only two books?
