One of the hardest reads I've tackled it took an eternity to get through. But I thoroughly enjoyed Kafka's dark dreamscape of a novel.
Enjoyed, Boris was the highlight for me as I'm sure was the same for many others.Although I did struggle with some of Theo's streams of consciousness, and found them slightly too waffly and drawn out. But overall some great themes and lessons learnt by Theo.
Just re-read this one. The epitome of Nordic Noir for me. Glorious pacing, and more believable characters than many other authors I've encountered in the genre.
This book took me forever to get through, even so in was an intriguing read, I would recommend to anyone with an Interest in the history of humanity in the last few centuries.
This book was so epic I read it in a day, definitely the same vibe going for it as Millenium trilogy, I can see myself getting into Nesbo for sure. Maybe not as amazing as Millenium trilogy books but very good, great characters and plot unfolds nicely. CHur
Boring!! Whoever called this thriller of the year needs to get their head checked! Aside from a few points of tension, I found this underwhelming..
Great read and as we already knew, Steve ain't then nicest of chaps on a good day but goddamn he is one smart mofo
One of my favorite books ever, the perfect image of a detective in America back in the day. Gripping writing, tension is high and Chandler is a true master of the Metaphor. Phillip Marlowe is a classic character. Highly recommended.
Tough to get into at first the prose is straight up and quite emotionless, but the further you get in, the more you get drawn in to the web of L.A underworld and crooked detectives. All of the main characters hold their own with the protagonist now really being revealed until towards the end, great read.
