I have an unpopular opinion, The Bat is one of my favorite Harry Hole novels. The fact that this was Nesbo's first novel blew me away. It was a good introduction, and there are references to the events in later novels.

Recommend Me
Any good summer reads, I like funny or modern romantic novels. Favourite author of comedic novels is Kathy Lette, I have read all of her books. I like an easy read, not too intellectual as this is time to lose myself :-)

Sapphic graphic novels, preferably with a colourful, feminist, inclusive vibe and maybe some fantasy backdrop.

Book Favorite

"The deepest and most thrilling of all Japanese novels, which embodies the refined sensibility and historical burden of a nation just on the cusp of World War II. The novels of Kawabata, the Nobel prizewinner, are also dear to my heart, especially the Sound of the Mountain."
