"The first crime novel I read that made me want to write one. It’s the original “American Psycho,” thirty years or so before Bret Easton Ellis."

This was a romance novel that was masquerading as a Scandinavian crime novel. It took me forever to get through, and I don't think I'll be reading anything else by this author. I was so disappointed, because it had so many good reviews.

The last novel of author Paul Torday is practically a script for the TV series "Criminal Minds" but with an unusual twist. (What a shame we won't have any more of his books in the future.)

One would expect something amazing to come from the late, world-famous murder mystery writer P.D. James taking on a sequel to Jane Austen's most beloved novel "Pride & Prejudice." Could this be a match made in heaven or just a literary crime? Find out from my review here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2013/10/18/a-match-made-in-heaven-or-a-literary-crime/

An interesting but not easy read
As a lover of Victorian literature, I wanted to delve in to what the Russians were writing at the time, and where better to start than with the hugely loved Dostoyevsky. This novel is incredibly long, seconded only by Crime and Punishment. Yet not much really happens to do with the plot. This novel is more about characters and their development, as well as exploring big themes such as religion, crime, justice and family. It's an interesting read, but definitely not one to read before bedtime to relax!
  
How much fun could a book about crime be? Well, if it involves a group of elderly people in Sweden, a whole lot. Read more about this lovely novel here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2016/06/14/naughty-but-nice/
