A review by nila
Macbeth by Jo Nesbø
5.0
STUNNING
Maybe this is the way for me to enjoy Shakespeare... a 500-page thriller in Norwegian (honestly someone teach me the key to reading Shakespeare I WANT TO LEARN).
I think it started off a bit slow, but it quickly got exciting. Once I got an overview of the characters I WAS HOOKED. This book has every "type" of character and they're wonderfully flawed and fleshed out (sometimes literally hehe). My favourites were Lady and Fleance.
I think one of Nesbø's strengths generally is the way he writes dialogues. I love how he can change the tone of a scene with a simple line.
There are plenty of twists and turns, and I'm usually pretty good at seeing them coming, but I was surprised quite a few times during the book.
I'm struggling writing a decent review in English, so I'm just leave it there. I don't know how good the translation is, but i might check it out later this year cause I'm kind of curious to know
