Stallo | Litsy

pick

I loved the storyline about trolls in Sweden abducting children. The various types of troll, from very small to giant, was interesting. I do not know much about Swedish folklore, but these were not the type of trolls I am used to. The setting of the book was amazing. The frozen land was so intriguing to me, and the trials of day to day living when everything is freezing.

Stallo: What If Something Is Out There? | Stefan Spjut

so-so

I so wanted to like this. The premise was good, based on old Swedish tales of the Stallo, who appear in this story as shapeshifting trolls that are linked to disappearing children. It wasnt bad, but felt way longer than it needed to be. I also felt that the pace of the story was all over the place, which meant i struggled to engage with the characters.

Todays used bookstore mini mini #bookhaul - the third of the month already. My TBR pile is slowly becoming a feat of architecture 😂

Reggie I didn‘t have a TBR until Litsy and it‘s out of control now. There‘s days when I add 10 books and think, what the hell am I doing? But they sound sooo good. Lol 5y

Mandoul Haha i know exactly what you mean @Reggie too much out there and way too hard to pass things by when you see them! 5y

Crazeedi @Mandoul welcome to litsy!! I have the same tbr disease!! 5y

bailed

What is the bookish equivalent of ‘it‘s not you, it‘s me‘? I stuck it out for 150 pages. It has an intriguing start, but switches gears pretty quickly to a slow burn that I just wasn‘t in the mood for. I‘ll keep it on the TBR shelf in case I get inspired to give it another shot.
