Loving being back on Litsy because of all the fun game cards I keep seeing, and then there‘s these cool list surveys as well. Thanks @dabbe for organizing🙌🏼
There were several authors who I‘ve read, but not the actual book listed by Time. Clearly I have lots of books to keep adding to my #TBR
pickThe 5th Rebecka Martinsson book, and this is now one of my favourite series with great characters and plots in the North Swedish Town of Kiruna. Here, a body is found + hidden in the victim's frightened grandson. There is also a plot from the early 1900s around the mine owner who built the town and his affair with a young woman. As Rebecka is pushed out of the investigation by an old foe, she sets off to look into things herself. A page turner
pickAn easy read and mostly enjoyable

pickThe Crow Girl both mesmerized and disturbed me. Trigger warnings for almost all content. We are used to the darkness of most Scandinavian novels. The Crow Girl makes not attempt to drown out true monsters. It artfully illustrates broken memories, fragments of self shattered by trauma. I could not put it down. The authors (two under one name) wrote of horrors and the horrid. I recommend this book, but with caution and care.
It's been years since I read this #standalone zombie book, but I recall it being a very slow burn that I couldn't put down. A close examination of death and grief that stops just short of being a full zombie apocalypse story.

so-soThis look at Sami people in Sweden fighting for their native grazing land and rights is fine but ultimately unmemorable. It‘s slim (the audio is less than 3 hours) and I feel like it was a little lacking in content. I found The End of Drum-Time to be a more effective look at the Sami experience.
