It is 5 minutes to midnight and I finally found my Moomin books I wanted to read for #Finland #foodandlit. Well…

For #foodandlit this month I chose Evil Things, the 1st book in the Hella Mauzer crime series. It is set in 1952 Finland & Hella is a police officer sent to an isolated town on a missing persons case which turns into a murder case with Soviet spies & government coverups. Hella herself is very flawed, & although this book is rather dark & depressing at times, I enjoyed it & it had a satisfactory ending. 4⭐️ #Finland 🇫🇮

I enjoyed this dystopian crime novel about a man searching for his wife in Helsinki. In the days before Christmas the world is falling apart, climate change is a done deal, and the police don‘t have the resources to look for a missing woman. A quick read, perfect for holiday reading when you don‘t want to think too hard.
Taking this last opportunity to post for #foodandlit #Finland in these last hours of December 31st.
I visited Helsinki for a week this November/December and had some very lovely local food (and lots of Glögi 😇) there.
Also bought loads of Moomin books and merchandise 😊

Have a safe and good start into 2025 everybody!🥂
I want to thank #foodandlit2024 for encouraging me to choose a book from Finland. One of my best friends growing up had a Finnish dad and a Swedish mum and I was exposed to all of the best things from each culture and continue to love Scandi style above all others. This novel is a love letter to summer and Finland told in short vignettes that flip back and forth through the main character‘s , Sophia, childhood summers with her grandma and father.
I really enjoyed another book by this author I read for #foodandlit #Finland this month. So this was an automatic buy for me. On sale today. @Catsandbooks
I‘m going to try to squeeze in one last book for #Finland #foodandlit
