pickI enjoyed this start to this new Danish series. Yes, it definitely has strong THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO vibes, but there are some surprises to the plot and I enjoyed the characters and the setting. I thought it was funny that the author made the comparison to her lead detective as a “Tony Soprano” type because I couldn‘t imagine anyone else after that! It feels smoothly translated and I‘m looking forward to the next one in the series!
pickThis was an interesting thriller with a dark plot. It deals with some fairly heavy subjects. The plot is a slow burn with no dramatic conclusion as much is already known. I must admit the final ending with Anna was not what i'd hoped for. I wanted to see the guilty party truly pay but it did fit with the feel of the story however. Heloise is a great lead and I liked the detective she works with. #Netgalley 3*
pickReally enjoyed this story. Set in Copenhagen, it follows a journalist who has received mysterious letters from a woman accused of murder who has never been found. I believe this is the first in a series. I hope the next book is released in the US soon. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is the view of my yard this morning- lovely weather on the east coast today! 🥶❄️🌨🌬
panThe Corpse Flower starts three years ago, a lawyer is stabbed, but the woman who did it got away. A journalist starts to receive letter from the fugitive. All the characters are connected in some way or other. I would have liked this a bit more if it did not feel so rushed. I think this was trying too hard to be like The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
pickI didn‘t love this one tremendously but I didn‘t hate it at all either.. 🤷🏻♀️ I definitely loved the outcomes that the characters ultimately got, which makes it worth the read!
⚠️ TRIGGER WARNINGS: Rape, child porn/abuse, pedophilia ⚠️
Starting this one! Funny how I didn‘t realize how creepy this cover actually is until I took the picture for this post. 😏
pickBetween a Pick and a So-So. It's a good crime novel, but not outstanding. The characters are ok, but won't be remembered. It's a nordic crime novel perfect for fans, but to weak to compare to other books in the genre. I've had some nice hours listening to the audio book, it's perfect for doing chores.
Trigger warning (SPOILER): child abuse!
