Book Rating
This is the first novel in the Detective Varg series by McCall Smith. It's lighthearted (as much as a mystery novel can be), and the polar-opposite of nordic noir. The novel is written as a series of short stories, and it was a very quick read. Half of me thinks that this was written purely as a satire of nordic noir, without grisly deaths and violence against women.
I received this book from the Penguin First to Read program (RIP).
