Let Me in
by John Ajvide Lindqvist
4 Stars
This was an incredible story. A very dark tone was set, right from the beginning. You think places like Swedan, Netherlands, etc.; are bright, cheery, touristy areas; well this book just doesn't show that. We are introduced to alcoholics, bullies, emotionally weak, and depressed individuals. Small town-minded people who don't 'see'; or who couldn't possibly see what's going on around them.
I think the book gave us the insights into Eli & Hakans relationship; insights that many of us, were not expecting..
I enjoyed this book, was grossed out by this book, intrigued by this book; and had many questions answered.
This book is definitely worth a re-read.

In the movie, Hakan is made out to be a totally sympathetic character, who is lured in by years-long friendship and servitude with Eli (abby); only to find out that the book tells a different tale. It showed Eli's absolute naivete and youth to use this pedophile to fulfill his/her need for bloodI enjoyed this book, was grossed out by this book, intrigued by this book; and had many questions answered.
