The Verifiers - Jane Pek
She read
Publication Date: Feb. 22, 2022
This is a very contemporary story with what I would call “snappy” writing to go along with it. For me, the mystery was less a focus of the book than the family relationships, cultural stereotypes, and learning a bit about the internet dating industry and the negatives encountered in our online world (algorithms bots, data mining etc). Pek has a good sense of humor and although I thought it did drag a bit around the half way point, it was an easy, enjoyable read. I also thought it a bit of a stretch that Claudia’s two siblings’ work was so closely related to the companies with which she was involved.
I wonder if this is the beginning of a series? I would enjoy reading more stories with these characters.
