#Read2025

My first December #Roll100 pick finished, #26 Any Backlist . I have been slowly working my way through T.Kingfisher‘s backlist the last couple of years, liking both her brand of creepy horror & retellings. This one was a bit of a slow burn for me but I enjoyed it. It was more creepy than scary & left some questions unanswered at the end but I enjoyed it. How can you not like a setting that‘s a museum/curiosity shop in a small town? 😱

Under the Storm: A Novel | Christoffer Carlsson

Wow, this is a what you call #NordicNoir! A fire and a murder in a small Swedish village continue to have effect on the village for years to come. A former police officer can‘t let go and neither does the nephew of the man convicted for the crimes.

In the mean time the book sketches a pretty good picture of the political and social circumstances of the country during the 90s and the 00s. ⬇️

BarbaraBB Also, I learned about the cycloon Gudrun, that hit Sweden in 2005 and took down more than 75 million cubic metres of trees with many implications for the national economy. Recommended! (edited) 3mo

monalyisha I‘m actually considering trying this! I normally wouldn‘t be drawn to it but I‘ve been trying to find books for my stepdad, who recently started reading (in preparation for his retirement). He‘s a homicide detective with a history as an arson detective. He doesn‘t have a literary bent but I‘m wondering if this is one we *both* might be able to read? Worth “investigating,” anyway! 😉 3mo

BarbaraBB @monalyisha I loved it but it‘s not your traditional thriller in the sense that it is real Swedish and rather quiet. I loved that. Not much violence either. But definitely worth investigating 🕵️‍♂️ 3mo

Cathythoughts Great review. There‘s feeling and depth and intrigue and thriller … my absolute favourite kind of book. X 3mo

GatheringBooks Ooh! Stacked! 3mo

CarolynM Sounds great. Stacked. 🙂 3mo

A wonderful romance Sleepless in Seattle style that is perfect. All the characters are charming, the two main characters are lovable. This was the perfect romcom, a tier 4! Book #26 in 2025
