Welcome to Litsy!

Pretty good mystery. Not quite Scandi enough for me but I read the author is half Norwegian, half American, studied in England. Still, a good novel full of despicable characters.

Apparently one of my favorite reads from last year is on sale on amazon‘s kindle and iBooks today for $2.99! Check it out! You won‘t regret it! Very creepy and suspenseful Scandi-Noir! 😱⛈

Scandi Noir.I think being a parent made this book a little more horrifying than I may have found it if I didn‘t have a child. The main narrator (the story is told from 3 different perspectives) is extremely unlikeable and painfully unreliable..which only adds to the suspense and thrill of it all!! Alex Dahl being born in Oslo, the capital of Norway, has surely given her a knack for painting a stunning Scandinavian backdrop. Review continues below

I just finished this book. It is a great novel. If you enjoy a gripping, complex mystery this is a definite must for you.

Lies and their consequences- that‘s what I am taking away from this book. Cecilia is definitely a flawed character and it was hard to have much sympathy for her. I did like the book overall- love the Scandinavian setting. I hope there will be more by this author.

⭐️⭐️⭐️: Good Nordic noir book about a little boy left at a swimming pool and the family that takes him home.

Cecelia had a perfect life with a perfect husband, two daughters, a beautiful home, and an enjoyable part-time job.

One night could change it all.

Excellent suspense debut.

Just finished reading this book.

Cecelia had a perfect life with a perfect husband, two daughters, a beautiful home, and an enjoyable part-time job.

One night changed it all.

Cecelia didn‘t want to take Tobias home, but she couldn‘t leave him at the school alone. Taking him home was the worst thing that could have happened to her.

"Cecelia had a perfect life with a perfect husband, two daughters, a beautiful home, and an enjoyable part-time job.

One night could change it all.

THE BOY AT THE DOOR is brilliantly written with a creative, odd story line that is a bit unbelievable, but oh so good and attention grabbing.

THE BOY AT THE DOOR is an excellent suspense debut. 4/5”

This is a brilliant debut that keeps you turning the pages. Although unrealistic at times the plot is quite a refreshing change and although the main characters are not likable at all the author has done an awesome job of making them feel real. This book is set Norway which was interesting and although dark at times there is also some humor in there also.
