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.

Sjöjungfrun av Camilla Läckberg
Siste foreløpige bok som er utgitt av Camilla Läckberg. Litt trist i grunnen... Har begynt å bli veldig glad i karakterene i Fjällbacka. Gleder meg til flere!
Denne boka starter med at en forsvinning blir til et mord når liket dukker opp i isen. Etterforskningen rundt forsvinningen blir nå etterforskning av et mord. Det blir vanskelig for etterforskerne å ta opp igjen dette etter så lang tid. Etterhvert dukker det også opp trusselbrev hos flere av vennene til den døde mannen. Også i denne boka hjelper Erica Falck ektemannen og politiet i etterforskningen.
En spennende bok. Men kanskje ikke den mest spennende... Hmm... vet ikke helt.

Tyskerungen av Camilla Läckberg
Bok nr 5 til Camilla Läckberg. Liker henne virkelig :) Denne boka hørte jeg på lydbok. Jeg vet liksom ikke helt hva jeg syns om lydbok. Det er på en måte veldig praktisk, på en annen måte liker jeg å lese bøker - ikke høre de. Allerede fra jeg var liten har jeg likt det best.
Denne boka handler om Erica sine undersøkelser av endel av morens eiendeler som hun fant på loftet. Tingene, noen dagbøker, et blodig babyklesplagg og en nazimedalje, vil gi henne en helt ny innsikt i moren sitt liv.
En veldig bra Camilla Läckberg bok!

Nineteen minutes by Jodi Picoult
I loved this book. Even though the story is so devastating and sad, Jodi manages to tell it with heart. In a way that you really feel for all the characters in the book. One of my favorite Jodi Picoult books I think.
The story is about Peter who is the shooter in a high school shooting drama. He kills 10 people and hurts 19. We follow Peter, his family, his lawyer, and Peters class mates through the book. Especially a girl named Josie and her mother. Josie and Peter were friends when they were little, they were not popular when they were small and Peter never gets to experience this. Josie on the other hand manages to become one of the people to be at their high school. Through the book we get to know a lot about Peter and Josies childhood, what has happened from they were babies until the day Peter starts shooting. It's a story about a lot of bullying and not noticing the bullying. We follow the whole community through the trial until the end.
I really recommend this book.

Fire Sale by Sara Paretsky
Sara Paretsky is one of my favourite writers. I have read almost all of her books. I'm not sure, but I think all of them are crime stories - which I love... Her gumshoe (private investigator) is a woman called V. I. Warshawski. Miss Warshawski is a woman in her forties now I think and Paretsky has followed her through different boyfriends and investigations for a few years. She has a sense of humor and at the same time is very practical and a little bit not girly.
Fire sale is about a lot of different things that happen in the neighborhood where miss Warshawski grew up. She has temporarily taken on the girls basketball team at the high school because her coach at the time she went to high school is ill. Through the basketball team and a reporter, whom she knows, she gets entangled in a couple of different stories. Like in all good crime stories everything all falls together towards the end.
I liked the book! I borrowed it from the library yesterday morning, started reading at about 1 or 2 pm yesterday and finished it about 6 pm today. So I read through it pretty fast - just the way I like it.
