Butterfinger I think so. She became more of a supporting character to Patrick. I liked the Ice Princess because of Erica. They need to just hire a nanny and let her be his equal. 5y

EadieB I'm tired of Erika and her pregnancies. She needs to go back to work. 5y

Tove_Reads @EadieB Me too! We know it‘s hard, but we don‘t constantly need to read about it in detail. 5y

AnneCecilie In the first book and previous one, Erica had a more active part in solving the books. During the first pregnancy, she stepped back and it was all about the maternity leave, and in a crime series that gets a little boring. I like Erica when she‘s in the action. @Butterfinger @EadieB @Tove_Reads 5y

Butterfinger I liked it. I liked how Erica was still prominent in solving the mystery and not passive as she was when pregnant with Maja. 5y

EadieB @Butterfinger The plot was interesting but just a bit drawn out. 5y

Tove_Reads @EadieB @Butterfinger I liked it, but definitely not my fave. Hope the next one will be more active, but might not be if she‘s at home with all the kids. 5y

AnneCecilie I liked it, and agree with @Butterfinger but I share your fears for the next book @Tove_Reads 5y

Butterfinger My heart stopped. The next book had better start with the next second after the wreck. No a year or two later. 5y

EadieB It's just a ploy to get you to read the next book. Didn't really have anything to do with the plot. 5y

Tove_Reads @Butterfinger @EadieB she tends to do this. Really hate it when it‘s one year later in the next book. Let‘s hope it‘s not this time. (edited) 5y

AnneCecilie I couldn‘t believe it and I had to order in the next book from the library. I‘m glad I don‘t have to wait for the next book. I hope the next one doesn‘t have a time jump @Butterfinger @EadieB @Tove_Reads 5y

Butterfinger I wonder if it is possible in real life. The men never associated with Christian except that one night. I could see why they didn't recognize him. It just goes to show - never trust a person who is not willing to discuss the past. I really don't know. I'm a secretive person till I know I can trust. 5y

EadieB I figured that he must have changed his name somewhere along his life. 5y

Tove_Reads @Butterfinger I wonder that too! 5y

AnneCecilie I guess people see what they want to see, and love makes blind. And when his wife started to snoop, she didn‘t look for two personalities, but an affair. The trio doesn‘t seem like a group of people that would care enough to ask too many questions. As kids I don‘t think they saw Christian but his fat, so when he comes back slim in adult life he‘s someone else. @Butterfinger @EadieB @Tove_Reads 5y

Butterfinger @AnneCecilie very true. 5y

Butterfinger Weird. Completely weird. I couldn't understand how they tolerated the leader (already forgot his name) especially as adults. 5y

EadieB I agree they were strange. I think the leader was Kenneth. (edited) 5y

Tove_Reads @Butterfinger @EadieB I doubt I could be in a group like that. Weird, weird, weird 5y

AnneCecilie I agree with all of you, and with everything that happened in the past I can‘t understand why Christian would want to be friends with them. @Butterfinger @EadieB @Tove_Reads 5y

Butterfinger I honestly thought that the letters were from a woman. It was very eery when she entered the house to leave the letter. 5y

EadieB @Butterfinger I figured all the guys that got the letters must be old friends and have a secret they can't tell. 5y

Tove_Reads I did not predict the writer right in the beginning, that‘s for sure! 5y

AnneCecilie I don‘t think I ever knew what to think about them. Christian was so secretive about his past that it could have been something in his past that no one knew about. @Butterfinger @EadieB 5y

I thought the concept was very clever in this novel. This series was my first #NordicNoir and I continue to favor it over others. I cannot believe the ending and will not be able to wait till next month to read the next.

@Tove_Reads @EadieB @AnneCecilie @Marina_h @Andrew65 @Crazeedi

EadieB @Butterfinger Yes I like Lackberg's books the best and the cliffhanger was a good one! 5y

Andrew65 I‘m a bit behind but hoping to continue the series this weekend with

The Hidden Child

Butterfinger @EadieB @Andrew65 I quit Lars Kepler. 5y

Christian Thydell's dream has come true: his debut novel, The Mermaid, has been published. Christian now receiving threats. One of Christian's closest friends, Magnus, goes missing. Detective Patrik Hedstrom must unravel a tangle of relationships, love triangles, and family secrets to discover what really happened to Magnus. This is a good addition to the series and a cliffhanger at the end makes me want to check out the next book right away.

Christian comes out with his debut novel, and everything turns up and down. His friend is found murdered. Christian and two of his friends receive threatening letters. No one knows anything about C's background, not even his wife. C's book gets praises, but he becomes weirder and weirder. A tough case for the police to solve. I enjoyed the book very much, but it's not my fave in the series. #NordicNoir

EadieB Sounds interesting! I‘m enjoying Ian McEwan‘s books! Have you ever read any? 5y

Tove_Reads @EadieB Yes, I have. But the one everyone seems to like, Atonement, I had to bail. 5y

EadieB Try The Innocent or Sweet Tooth. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB @Tove_Reads I‘m enjoying

The Children Act

EadieB @Andrew65 Yes, That is a good one too but if you can get a hold of the two I mentioned to @Tove_reads, let me know what you think of them. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB I‘ve also just got the audiobook of this one from the library.

Machines Like Me

EadieB @Andrew65 I just downloaded an audio of Machines. That one sounds good too! (edited) 5y

A book of genre fiction in translation

This one is in the middle of the series but still enjoyable especially if you like more information on the personal lives of the detectives along with the mystery.

Andrew65 I need to get back to this series. Really enjoyed the first two. 7y

Moonpa @Andrew65 there‘s definitely a formula to them but it‘s comforting. And this book ended with some serious happenings so I had to pick up the next one!!! 7y

Ich entscheide auf den ersten 20 bis 100 Seiten, ob mir ein Buch zusagt. Bei diesem Krimi ist es leider nicht so. In den ersten 20 Seiten werden soviele Charaktere mit OrtssprĆ¼ngen eingefĆ¼hrt, dass ich niemanden mehr zuordnen konnte. Zudem gefallen mir persĆ¶nlich die Charaktere nicht so. FĆ¼r mich ist es nichts, anderen kann es gut gefallen.

Tasau Ich habe auch mal ein Buch von ihr angefangen zu lesen - es aber auch nicht beendet š‰ 8y

An eerie, seemingly supernatural killer is targeting a circle of old friends. This kept me guessing until the very end.

Annoying past few days. Ducked into bookshop & randomly selected a title. Plot synopsis looks intriguing. Completely broke my pseudo-moratorium on buying new books, but sometimes.... [no spoilers!]

1 of 3 stacks of books I picked up at my local libraries sidewalk sales. So many good titles! I've never read any läckberg but I keep seeing it everywhere so decided it was fate!
