This book was not what I thought it would be, and I will stay away from Nesbo for a while.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. Re-reading the Smiley books. And Thank you for being late by Tom Friedman.

"Where the God of love hangs out" short stories by Amy Bloom

Thanks, I will try to find this book in Swedish.

"Secret Notes" and once again I can't help noticing bad translation into English (from Russian), as in Genna Sosonko's books and Sosonko got even worse translations.

But we are hungry for such insiders' insights and we have some knowledge-in-advance, so we can decipher that Russian soul and Russian expressions.

If it were book on some other subject I would be probably cursing all the time "Which idiot translated this?!"

That happens to me when I read your posts.

The novel by Håkan Nesser was good and kept me busy and interested. I'm presently without a good book and would appreciate suggestions.

Thank you, vandervelde. Both have good reviews - good stories and well-written. Carsten Jensen's 678-page book maybe "...best read during long winter's nights...". I'll enquire at the library for both.
