Welcome to Litsy!

I reached 67% and have 3 1/2 hours at 1.5 speed to finish. I‘ve been arguing with myself about bailing all morning, and I surrender. I don‘t know if it‘s the narrator, the translation, or the source material but I dislike the characters, the author seems oddly obsessed with menstruation, and non-white male characters are not written well. I wanted to read this before watching Dept Q, but I think I‘ll skip the TV show as well.

Was surprised that I liked this book. Yet another book that I liked that was out of my wheelhouse. #12booksof2024 #november

The last in the brilliant Department Q series. It‘s bittersweet—I can‘t wait to read the book, but I‘m so sorry to see the end of the series.

4⭐️ I really liked the book and found it an enjoyable read. Liked the character development and the story. #2024 #mystery #suspense #contemporary #bookclub #thriller

An early #BookReport from me this Saturday

I finished the 10th Department Q crime book

I continued Sovereign #ShardlakeBR and Katti Anker Møller
And I‘m also reading Hedgewitch

The 10th and last book in the Department Q series. Through the previous books, we have gotten glimpses of the last case Carl had with his last team members. This book starts with Carl‘s arrest for happened back then on suspicion on corruption, murder, narcotics.

While Carl is in prison, his team is trying to find proof of his innocence and someone is trying to have him killed.

Will Carl survive and is he guilty?

My current view in Bergen Norway. So beautiful here but we head out tomorrow. Reading this book that takes place in Copenhagen which was our first stop on our trip…. Love reading about place I know or have been to… anyone else?

Despite the grumpy, rude, bitter protagonist, this is a suspenseful and interesting crime thriller. I plan to read more of this series.

Another great Carl Morck story, in which Carl + his 2 colleagues Assad + Rose investigate several disappearances in 1987 , while in present day the search focuses on a far right party moving into power. Thus is a very enjoyable series set in Denmark which combines great plotting with a brilliant sense of humour.
