North of Boston
North of Boston: A Novel | Elisabeth Elo
8 posts | 6 read | 1 reading | 5 to read
A gripping and unorthodox thriller, packed with intriguing characters and unexpected twists. Tom Perrotta, bestselling author of Nine Inches Like Smillas Sense of Snow combined with the best of Dennis Lehane, North of Boston is a dark and deeply atmospheric thriller with a sharp-witted, tough-talking heroine readers will be clamoring to meet again. Boston-bred Pirio Kasparov is out on her friend Neds fishing boat when a freighter rams into them, dumping them both into the icy waters of the North Atlantic. Somehow, she survives nearly four hours before being rescued. Ned is not so lucky. Pirio cant shake the feeling that what happened was no accident, a suspicion seconded by her cynical Russian-immigrant father. And when Pirio teams up with the unlikeliest of partners, she begins unraveling a terrifying plot that leads to the frozen reaches of the Canadian arctic, where she confronts her ultimate challenge: to trust herself.

Excuse this not very elaborate review: ❤️

The protagonist and what kind of person she is. 🥰 Her views. Her family and her relationship with her father. Loved that perfume business plot line. I also was highly interested in all that fishing stuff – although I was feeling very sick after listening to a certain scene during lunch.

Towards the end it lost a bit. It became too genre like. But I want more by this author‼️

Just this once I didn‘t manage to read/finish listening during the lending period. So I needed to borrow it again right away after it expired. And at first, that didn‘t work. I was very frustrated but also realised that my library has the e-book, too And so I decided to go for this if I can‘t have the audiobook.

Well, 8 hours later I was able to check out the audiobook again.

So there I was.
One book, different formats.

📚I pass. That‘s not how my category of “favourite” works. I‘m sorry. 🤷🏽‍♀️

🐳 Funny that you‘re asking. No. But weirdly both, my current book (🇬🇧 “Silver Bay”) and my current audiobook (🇬🇧 “North of Boston”) deal with either whales 🐋 or industrial fishing 🏭 🎣 .

I pulled this book from my physical TBR solely because the spine matched my Red/White/Blue theme for my #BookSpinBingo stack. What a fun unpredictable mystery with an interesting and likeable MC - perfume company beneficiary turned cold water swimming expert - turned amateur sleuth. It was fun to read this come together.

It's cold in Vienna right now, thought I post a flashback to reading the excellent thriller "North of Boston" back in summer in Croatia.

🔔📚🔔 $1.99 Amazon/B&N-- for fans of mystery/thrillers I very much recommend this one! I loved that the MC wasn't a detective/lawyer/PI and that the MC travels around the world.
