BookishMe Methinks all her books can be used for this prompt 😊😊 4y

Eggs Undoubtedly! I‘ve read only these 2. @BookishMe 4y

BookishMe @Eggs after I read Sharp Objects, I decided to stay away from her books! She's too good in her craft *shudder*

The Hypnotist: A Novel | Lars Kepler

Day 24 - #DarkIntention #AcrossApril

I think these books by Lars Kepler are the darkest books that I have ever read! they are very hard to read sometimes! #NordicNoir

Crazeedi, AnneCecilie, eanderson, Eggs, Tove_Reads, Andrew65, Butterfinger, gradcat, Marina_h

Andrew65 And some! 4y

eanderson Yup! I agree! 4y

EadieB @Andrew65 Don't really know why I keep reading this author. I guess because I'm a die-hard but they are difficult reads!

@Eanderson I think you gave up on the first one! I keep thinking they will get better.

Susanita Pretty creepy in the end

The Nightmare: A Novel

Andrew65 I‘ve read book 1 and 31% through book 2 when i lost the library loan, now got it back so most probably will finish it in the next couple of weeks. 4y

EadieB @Susanita I think all these books have a high creep factor. 4y

EadieB @Andrew65 Some of the plots are interesting I just don't like the darkness and unnecessary explicit sex. 4y

Andrew65 @EadieB It‘s the sex which is a total turn off for me. 4y

EadieB @Andrew65 I agree! Same with me! 4y

Andrew65 @EadieB Just don‘t understand why it is needed in any book. 4y

EadieB @Andrew65 I believe that there are people who like to read explicit sex. But I think they should keep it in certain genres where you would expect it to be. I just don't like my mystery/thrillers fulled with sex. I like blood and gore without sex! 4y

Andrew65 @EadieB Totally agree. 4y

eanderson Haha! I did give up after the first one in that series! I don‘t mind some of the noirs I‘ve read but some just go almost too far. I did listen to the Sandman and oh boy. That one was really dark. I have the Stalker on hold. I need to read something not so dark before starting that one. (edited) 4y

EadieB @eanderson I've only got 3 more to read. I keep hoping they will get not so dark and so full of unwanted (by me) sex. I should quit reading them but I'm afraid I'm going to miss something good. lol 4y

eanderson Lol! I agree 100% about the unwanted sex. I don‘t care for it. I think someone said the next one has quite a bit of it in it... we shall see... 😑 with out it the series good! Just a bit dark. 4y

EadieB @eanderson I think I‘ll just skip over the sex parts and concentrate on the plot lines. 4y

Tove_Reads @eanderson @eadieb @andrew65 You do not want to miss the next one! I found it to be the darkest so far, but it‘s surprising, and it‘s good. FYI, you might want to skip over the swingers club pages... too graphic. 4y

EadieB @Tove_Reads Ok Thanks for the heads up! 4y

Eggs Nordic Noir—gives me the heebie jeebies 🥶😳. Good choice! 4y

Crazeedi @EadieB @Andrew65 @eanderson I got halfway through the first one and haven't finished. I agree with the unnecessary sex etc, just dont like reading it. Skipping it might be an idea but I always think I'll miss something pertinent to story 4y

EadieB @Crazeedi Glad to hear you feel the same way as we do! 4y

Marina_h I have a hard time thinking of books I found darker than these ones so yes agree. I'm still looking forward to the next one though, but I also don't mind the graphic details. I can understand why it isn't for everybody 4y

EadieB @Marina_h The bottom line is that if you enjoy the story and the characters then you will come back for more and the series has captured us. Thanks for your comment! 4y
