Blessed Are Those Who Thirst by Anne Holt
4.0
The second in a series I came across quite by accident, I'm pleasantly surprised with my experience thus far. It is hard to go wrong with such an affinity for Scandinavian crime novels such as mine, but nonetheless I was quite taken by the character of Hanne Wilhemsen and thoroughly impressed by the thoughtful exploration of the themes the book covers.
Rape culture and sexuality are two very near and dear subjects to my heart and I was thrilled to see them addressed so candidly and accurately in Blessed Are Those Who Thirst. The characters were heartwarming or downright abominable when necessary: I found myself understand each of their incentives and motivations as if they were my own.
A beautifully done story which will most certainly have my eyes peeled for other books within the series, or from Holt in general.
