klacebo 's review for:

Cockroaches by Jo Nesbø

DID NOT FINISH

---

Others obviously like this type of thing more than I do (the cover claims over 20 million copies sold, and who am I to dispute that), and that was apparently the reason it was given to me as a gift, by someone who hasn't read a book or knows my tastes. Either way, in more than a year I couldn't get myself to care enough about the mystery or any of the boring characters to finish the book, so it's going to the pile of "gave up".
