Death Note: Another Note - The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases
There's a serial killer loose in Los Angeles and the local authorities need help fast. For some reason the killer has been leaving a string of maddeningly arcane clues at each crime scene. Each of these clues, it seems, is an indecipherable roadmap to the next murder.
Onto the scene comes L, the mysterious super-sleuth. Despite his peculiar working habits, he's never shown his face in public—but this time, he needs help.
Enlisting the services of an FBI agent named Naomi Misora, L starts snooping around the City of Angels. It soon becomes apparent that the killing spree is a psychotic riddle designed to specifically engage L in a battle of wits. Stuck in the middle between killer and investigator, it's up to Misora to navigate both the dead bodies and the egos to solve the Los Angeles Murder Cases.

Uma obra que se serviu de tudo aquilo que eu sabia sobre Death Note e utilizou essa informação para me enganar por completo. Depois de uma leitura intensa, eis que me deparei com uma das melhores reviravoltas de sempre. Simplesmente incrível!

Eu esperava muito deste livro. Peguei-o com a sensação de que gostaria mesmo muito, não fosse pelo facto de me terem emprestado a saga inteira de "Death Note". O que eu não esperava é que esta estranha sensação de dízimo se apoderasse de mim de forma tão forte. Sim, sinto-me derrotada após esta leitura, de tão boa que foi! Se conhecem a saga, ou se estão para começá-la, leiam primeiro este livro, e depois conversamos. Aposto que não só eu me sentirei assim tão desamparada!
SUPER RECOMENDO!

FANTASTICO DEMAIS, eu amo MUITO esse livro. ele é uma adição surreal pro universo de death note e é bem escrito DEMAIS, eu amo todos os plot twists desse livro e como a trama vai se desenrolando, fora que o beyond birthday é um personagem incrivel e provavelmente um dos meus favoritos de death note. a naomi misora também é muito bem utilizada aqui (ao contrário da história principal) e esse livro ainda conta mais sobre a lore do Watari e o orfanato. absurdo de bom, recomendo pra todo mundo que goste de death note

Amo Death Note-já assisti muito mais vezes do que deveria o anime-e o meu episódio favorito é o da Naomi, então tive que ler esse livro. Sabia antes de começar a ler quem estava por trás dos assassinatos, mas mesmo assim foi uma leitura muito boa e que me surpreendeu diversas vezes, principalmente o final. Fiquei nervosa, ansiosa e arrepiada. Simplesmente incrível.

As saudades de Death Note apertaram, através de um empréstimo tive oportunidade de ler este livro. Muito bom, fez-me lembrar o porquê de ter adorado o anime. Mal posso esperar para ler o mangá todo.
