fictionarymind 's review for:
Snemanden
by Jo Nesbø
“What is worse? Taking the life of a person who wants to live or taking death from a person who wants to die.”
This is the 7th book in the 'Harry Hole'-series. This is the first one I'm reading, so it's possible to start wherever you want it seems. The book is about police inspector Harry Hole, who investigates a number of disappearances and murders in Norway, and which he suspects is the work of a serial killer.
The book met my requirments for a decent thriller. It had me guessing a lot, there were interesting characters, and a suspenseful build-up.
The snowman totally creeped me out at times because it was snowing at the same time here in Denmark, and I saw snowmen around. Nesbø had a good and easy writing. I felt the snowman look into my eyes and stare at me, and at the same time, it was thorough on detail but a quick read.
I liked the mystery and thriller in the book, and we had some scenes that were quite graphic, but other than that I didn’t find it too dark.
A downside of this book was that it had many mysogynist comments, which annoyed me a lot, and it was also a bit predictable in some areas.
This was my first book by Jo Nesbø, and it won't be the last.
It was recommended to me by hubby, and I enjoyed it. But I've been told I need to stay away from the movie, although I like Michael Fassbender :(
“Did you know that darkness has a taste?”
