Welcome to Litsy!

It was a toss up between 3 and 4 stars. I really enjoyed this book. It kept my interest, sometimes keeping me up later than I should. I liked the subdued voice, it made it feel Iike the MC was lonely. A lot of reviews wrote that the end was predictable. I didn‘t think so, but it wasn‘t a huge shock, either. I‘d like to read more by this author.

Scandinavian noir and was expecting to be a little more frightened. Slow moving for most of the book, but a nice character study and a bleak O. Henry-ish twist at the end.

Here's a tip - don't start reading this late at night when you have to get up early the next morning and it's dark and rainy out - and you're home alone. I'm not easily spooked but this is truly creepy. And awesome.
