Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Oreki Houtarou is a self-proclaimed ‘energy-saver’ – that is, he will not actively waste energy doing things that aren’t necessary. Though he had no interest whatsoever in joining any clubs upon entering Kamiyama High School, he was commanded by his older sister Tomoe to enter the school’s Classics Club, which was in danger of getting abolished as all previous members have graduated.

Together with his old friends Fukube Satoshi and Ibara Mayaka, as well as the elegantly ladylike and curiously inquisitive Chitanda Eru, the newly reformed Classics Club find themselves involved in all sorts of mystery-solving escapades. Houtarou soon finds out that the Classics Club, as Tomoe has promised, is actually ‘quite interesting’.

And so begins the ‘Classics Club Series’.

It's hard for me to think of any other anime who caused me to be as affected as hyouka (I legit brought out pen and paper) and it's intricate mysteries weather it be the main mystery or the subtle ones the author always slips in, or the over-arching theme of talent or the lack of it. The characterizations are amazing and complex while seeming simple at the same time. It's like an art masterpiece where it just draws you in and before you know it a long time has already... more>> past in your contemplations or reflections <<less

Nice simple mystery novel where nobody dies. Can't divulge much without spoiling, but the author pay homages to famous mystery writer like Agatha Christie.

The mysteries are fresh and original. This is a mystery series where the solutions are just a simple part of everyday life. The main character Oreki Houtarou is relatable, describing himself as average.
Spoiler

He scored perfectly in the middle of his school's exams.

Beware, the author's writing speed is not very fast, it came out in 2001 but currently only has 6 volumes, but the 7th volume is on the way, just prepare to wait like I am. 😉
