Welcome to Litsy!

Dark and twisty like most Nordic Noir, this was a really great read for me because the twist was a surprise. I read a lot of murder mysteries so that doesn't always happen much anymore. This is a multiple POV narrative format by chapter so it's kind of a slow burn; you're not quite sure where the threads are going until you see them all pulled together in the end. If you like Jo Nesbø or Henning Mankell, do pick this up. #LitsyAtoZ #LetterI

Omg, LOVE this thriller about a murder and disappearance. See my review at https://youtu.be/OVWhGufiWDw

Another Swedish thriller - and a really good one! I liked the use of three narrators and liked seeing the story from multiple points of view. Lots of twists and turns to keep you enthralled to the end. Hopefully she‘ll write more thrillers soon!

It was ok but nothing spectacular.

Up next: a Scandinavian psychological thriller

Camilla Grebe excels in the area of character development in this complex psychological thriller. This is a character driven novel and each chapter is written with a character's different point of view. The storyline centers around 2 different murders which are very similar and happen 10 years apart. Lots of dark and surprising twists which kept the pages turning until the last page. If you like psychological thrillers, then read this one.

Completely character driven. It was interesting to see how they all connected but it didn‘t get exciting until the last 50 pages or so.

Just started this!! Only a few pages in. I‘m intrigued by the case but not sure how I feel about the characters yet. Can‘t wait to see where this one goes...

It was alright, not the greatest mystery I‘ve read. Needed more plot and character development.

My Saturday at work.

Not bad, so far. Pretty slow at this point. #nordicnoir #mystery #camillagrebe

Putting this on hold until I get the actual book from the library. The audio is horrible.

This book has an excellent plot and great characters, it will pull you in - I read it in a day!

So I guessed whodunnit about 1/3rd from the end but despite that this was an enjoyable read. Lots of building of characters which I liked; felt I got inside each of the main characters and understood their connection to the story.

Pg. 101 of my current read. Not necessarily a key part of the murder mystery element but certainly part of the building of character profiles.

I liked the mother moving away which signified security and stability in the mind of a young child.

Multi-tasking - waiting for veg to cook before I fry the homemade tofu sweet potato burgers.

The Scandinoir murder mystery is really good 👍

Normally spend my lunches walking around town with my friend/colleague but she is on duty (and leaving soon) so I'm making a start on my new book.

Draws you in from the get-go. Enjoying immensely!

This thriller kept me guessing throughout! The police procedural and psychological profiling is richly detailed. Love the atmosphere, the troubled detectives and the innumerable twists and turns. Pick this if you love thrillers with unreliable narrators and intense plot development!

I enjoyed this thriller. The three narrators were used to great effect and I was so pleased by the twist ending and resolution. If you're in to bleak visions of human nature and suspenseful murder cases, check this one out.

This is one of those books where you think "whoa, what just happened".

Loved it great twists, interesting points of view. I will be following this author.

I loved this book. The format is some what different from a traditional mystery/thriller, but I found that made the book even better. Despite the fact that the main characters Hanne and Peter are not perfect, I really enjoyed them and hope to see them in future books. I would definitely recommend this book!

Finished! Finally. 2 days later than I wanted to... It was a great novel to start off my year! I recommend it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have less than 100 pages left. Usually, I can guess the ending of mysterious, murder-y stories, but not today!! Not today. I have to stop myself from speed reading my way through. Patience is a virtue, right?

So far, so good! I picked this up from the local #library after reading about it on the All the Books! Blog. A great, grisly read to start 2017 out right! (Orson photobomb!)

Day 1. Resolutions for 2017! I plan to read 100 books. Including Litsy challenges! I am also looking forward to being more active in this community.

Here we go y'all. This book is billed as "for fans of Jo Nesbø, Camilla Läckberg, and Ruth Ware" - SUCH a winning combination. I've only just started reading it, but it begins with the discovery of a woman's beheaded corpse. The writing is already incredibly engaging and I can't wait to see where it goes! #crimefiction

This novel is a tale of betrayal, obsession and pain that is full of dark and dangerous surprises that I didn‘t fully see coming. The twist didn‘t completely blow me away, mainly because Grebe had me guessing so much throughout the book that by the time the twist is revealed, I had already worked through so many possibilities. However, it was still a very enjoyable read for fans of dark and deadly crime fiction. Full review on www.novelgossip.com
