Dee (austhokie) | 652 comments Would you believe that I had posting this down on my list of things to do and then I got distracted...

anyways, our May author is going to be Åsa Larsson - we figured after having a couple of newer authors for March/April, that we would go with someone who has a few more books out for May.

So what are you going to read?

Diane S ☔ I think I have read all four of hers that have been translated here. Her stories are very dark and twisty, just as nordic noir should be.

Helen | 55 comments Reading Until thy Wrath be Passed. Very dark but already well into it. First chapter brilliant. Grabs you in. A look into small villages and revenge.

How is it going, Susan?"


Finally finished Until Thy Wrath be Past tonight, and was quite happy with the book as a whole. I liked the plot and the character development, and the way nothing was completely understood until the end. It was my first Asa Larsson book but it won't be my last!

Yes, I have finished
Until Thy Wrath Be PastIt is also my favorite of hers. Can anyone suggest others to top this. It would be hard. Brilliant brilliant first chapter. Still think about it days later.

Melissa | 20 comments I just finished Sun Storm. I felt like the ending left some stuff hanging, now I will have to read the second book and see if they touch on any of that or just move right on.
