Welcome to Litsy!

The book presents itself as a thriller, but it is full of scenes and references of a sexual nature that you can define as an erotic book.
I like the writer's style, but for almost the entire story I had the feeling that he wanted to save the protagonist at all costs, making the story unbelievable.
Nice plot twists in the ending.

It took me a while to get into this. Even when it picked up, my mind was a bit elsewhere, but I did get my mind back on what I was reading after a bit. At first, the twist at the end confused me, but it was explained. It‘s one of those things where it‘s tempting to go back knowing what you know at the end of the book to see how you had been led astray in your thinking. Cont in comments...

More Nordic Noir reading! Just wrapped up this one on audio. I kind of like the movie better, if only because I love the cast!

Such a fun, gruesome read. A corporate headhunter living above his means is also an art thief. The man he's recruiting for a lucrative position may also be sleeping with his wife. An intricate, bloody game of cat and mouse ensues, and you're never quite sure who's the predator or prey at any given time.

This is probably the most physical / visceral book I have ever read. There are scenes where I could have vomited from imagining the story that was being told. There's also some rather graphic sex scenes.

I must get around to rereading 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑑𝒉𝑢𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑠 soon. It‘s a darkly funny tale centred on a corporate recruiting consultant and part-time art thief with a disastrously exaggerated sense of self-importance. When I read it originally, I took it as a satire on capitalism. I wonder if I‘d still think that.

#AllHallowsRead #ScaryReadinTranslation #scaryread so this is another Scandinavian crime writer, who writes some pretty gory stuff. This novel is a stand alone and not part of the Harry Hole detective series, which Jo Nesbo is most recognized for. I wasn't aware this novel has been made into a movie, but I definitely could see why. #Giveaway

loved loved loved. Jo Nesbo is my new favorite author.

This book started off slow, but after the first 50 pages it took off and I read most of it in one day. The story is odd and has a Tarantino vibe about it, which I enjoyed. Definitely will be checking out Nesbo's other books!

This book started a little slow for me- but starting to pick up!

Time to try a new author!

NOT a Harry Hoke book 😂😂😂
