[quote=Anonymous]Deepti Kapoor's Age of Vice just made the cut, having been published on Jan. 3 2023. I thought it was excellent - the best popular lit I've read in a while. Kapoor managed to pull off two narrative techniques really well: a) jumping between past and present in the narrative; and b) present-tense narration ("He goes to the store" rather than "He went to the store"). IMO most authors of popular bestsellers who try this don't succeed, particularly with the time-jumping... it's done so often that it feels like a gimmick and the plot usually gets muddled as a result. Not so with Age of Vice. 5/5 stars. [/quote]
