Deadly Decisions by Kathy Reichs

Ok, so now I'm a bit fed up with Kathy Reichs - or this one wasn't as good as the previous - I don't know. Atleast it took me some more time to read this than the others.

Deadly decisions is about a motorcycle war that flares up right outside of Brennans front door. Innocent people are killed as well as bikers. Brennans nephew Kit comes visiting and is suddenly involved in the ongoing investigation.

When I finally got down to reading the last part of the book it was good, but it had a little bit of a drag in the middle.

[And now I'm up to date with my book list :) Yeah]

Grave Secrets by Kathy Reichs

Another Kathy Reichs book. I'm on a roll...

This one is about a period of time Temperence Brennan spends in Guatemala looking at both old and new bones. She is tested against the bureaucracy (??) in Guatemala when she isn't allowed access to the bones she is invited to look at.

A good book.

Kalde hjerter av Gunnar Staalesen

Dette er den første Varg Veum boka jeg tror jeg har lest og det var en positiv opplevelse. Jeg har jo lest 1 1/2 bok av Gunnar Staalesen før, så jeg vet at han kan skrive bra, men det er jo litt annerledes med en krimbok som skal være spennende hele tida enn historiske bøker.

Det kan nok tenkes at det blir et par Varg Veum bøker til etterhvert.

Død i dag av Kathy Reichs

Jeg fant enda en Kathy Reichs bok på hotellet vårt i Tyrkia :) Denne leste jeg på svensk, så derfor kommer anmeldelsen på norsk - mens boka egentlig er skrevet på engelsk... litt forvirrende kanskje, men men. En bra bok! Jeg liker godt å finne en forfatter som har skrevet endel bøker - og dykke ned i de. Sånn har det blitt litt med Kathy Reichs. Kan absolutt anbefales hvis man liker krim.

The broken window by Jeffery Deaver

My summer vacation starred another Jeffery Deaver book as well. My sister didn't like this so much - because it was full of lists... I couldn't understand what she was talking about until I started reading it. And of course it was full of lists. All of the Lincoln Rhyme books are full of lists of evidence... I had just never thought about them as lists...

A good and suspense filled book as almost all of his books are.

Bones to ashes by Kathy Reichs

My first Kathy Reichs book. I love the Tv series bones so I was excited to read one of the books that the series is founded on. And I was not dissapointed. It was exciting and I will definetly read more of her books.

The bodies left behind by Jeffery Deaver

As usual a Jeffery Deaver book is filled with suspens and surprises. This book was no exception. It's also nice to read a Jeffery Deaver book that's not about Lincoln Rhyme. It's hereby recommended.

A place called here by Cecilia Ahern

A cute book about going a place where all the things we lose go... It's interesting with books that go outside the box :)

Øya av Victoria Hislop

En bra bok! En bok om en familie, både nåtid og fortid, en øy med en dyster historie, livsglede både på fastlandet og på øye, mot til å gå mot strømmen og tragiske sjebner.

En bok som jeg absolutt kan anbefale!

New Moon by Stephenie Meyer

And I was soon onto book no. 2... With this book a new element is introduced into Bellas life. Werewolves! The plot thickens as a new boy enters Bellas life as well :) A boy she turns to as Edward leaves her.

This book I didn't like as much as the first one. It has a boring middle section, but in the end it is very exciting! Edward of course returns, and they talk about marriage. (Hope I didn't tell you too much now.)

Twilight by Stepenie Meyer

Seriously!!! I so shouldn't have listened to the girls in my cellgroup who talked about this series some months ago... I just knew that I would be hooked if I started reading it. And I am.

This is the first book in the series. It's about Bella Swan. A teenage girl who's moving from her mother to her father. Not reluctantly, but not with joy either. She meets a boy, and falls in love - deeply. But there's something wrong about this boy... After some scheming and asking the answer is that this boy is a vampire. A "good" vampire who doesn't kill people, but still - a vampire. And he likes Bella.

A typical head over heels love story that sweeps you in - if you let it. If you want to you can find several reasons as to why not like this book, but I was captured. So if you're willing to accept some pretty strange stuff you're in for a treat with this series.

The secret life of bees by Sue Monk Kidd

I borrowed this book from my sister. She recommended it, and I've heard others like it too... But I wasn't as thrilled as I would like to be. It was ok, but not as good as I'd hoped.

The story is of Lily Owens, 14 years old, who is formed by the last memory of her mother. Which isn't pleasent... This drives her to do stupid things, and the rest of the book is about her trying to learn more about her mother. It's also about the white-black differences that still existed in South Carolina in the 60s.

So, an okay book, but not one of the best...

Heart and Soul by Maeve Binchy

I've read many Maeve Binchy books over the years! And I love almost all of them. Especially the ones about Dublin and all the people there that she manages to weave together. There's the people at Scarlet and Feather and at Quentins and so many more woven together in this book that I really don't know if I could name them all.

This book is about a heart clinic newly opened. Clara Casey is the head of it with her no nonsense way. Through the book we get to know all of the staff, some of the patients and their families. I enjoyed reading all of the small stories that all has the heart clinic in its center.

Nattefokk av Johan Theorin

Bok nr 2 av Johan Theorin om Øland. Denne gangen handler det om nattefokket som kommer inn over Øland på vinteren. Katrine og Joakim Westin fra Stockholm kjøper Åludden fyr og skal pusse dette opp. Men før Joakim egentlig har fått flyttet helt inn, han måtte jobbe litt lenger i Stockholm, skjer det en tragisk ulykke. Åludden fyr har en lang historie om fyrvoktere og andre som har bodd der, og vi får etterhvert vite en god del om hva som har skjedd der etterhvert.

Også denne en veldig spennede bok :) Kan absolutt anbefales. Selv om dette er nr 2 av Johan Theorin går det utmerket godt å lese den uavhengig av 1-ern.

Skumringstimen av Johan Theorin

Dette er den første av fire bøker som Johan skal/og har skrevet om Øland. Skumringstimen handler om Jens som forsvinner i skumringstimen i september 1972. Han blir aldri funnet og moren hans har aldri klart å komme over tapet. Nye omstendigheter gjør at hun kommer tilbake til sin far på Øland - og sammen prøver de å finne ut av hva som egentlig skjedde i september 1972.

En spennende bok med både krimelementer og andre elementer. Jeg likte den veldig godt - og skal absolutt lese de neste tre.

Havets katedral av Ildefonso Falcones

En helt forferdelig bok.

En bra, men forferdelig bok! Handlingen utspiller seg i middelalderens Spania med godsherrer og bønder, katedraler og tragiske historier. Det er urettferdighet, ondskap, intriger, fæle folk og tragiske tilfeldigheter hele boka igjennom. Det er noen lyspunkt underveis, men det varer nesten aldri mer enn noen sider. Det meste av handlingen foregår forresten i Barcelona.

Hvis jeg ikke hadde fått boka i gave, og hvis jeg ikke hadde hatt en trang til å lese ferdig bøker jeg begynner på - så hadde jeg ikke fullført denne boka. Men den er bra, og fengende. Så da jeg hadde leste 10-15 sider så måtte jeg nesten lese den ut.

Men jeg må si som Ranveig sa da jeg fortalte litt fra boka - det var ikke alt som var bedre før...

En plass i solen av Liza Marklund

Enda en bok om Annika Bengtzon. Denne gangen er det en historie som utspiller seg på Solkysten i Spania som Annika skal skrive en reportasje om.

Jeg liker som oftest Liza sine bøker, og det gjorde jeg med denne også. Men jeg syns ikke den var av de beste hun har skrevet. Men kan anbefales for Annika Bengtzon fan...

Message in a Bottle by Nicholas Sparks

This is a book about a woman who reads messages in bottles from a man she doesn't know to a woman she doesn't know. She is so touched by this story that she goes digging. And little did she know what she would find.

A love story about finding and losing... I liked it.
