The Nightmare is the third installment in the Joona Linna series. This is the only one I didn’t absolutely love. I did find it very compelling and action packed. And as always, I loved the characters. I just didn’t feel like the main topic piqued my interest. There were a lot of politics and governmental discussions that I just didn’t find interesting. The title made the book seem creepier than what it was. The writing, though, is impeccable and was definitely enough to keep me reading. I really loved the ending and I can’t to read the next one in the series! I really do recommend reading all of the Lars Kepler books! They’re always so dark and twisted.
