Just the length of my trip. Quite interresting witness account of what life was in east Germany via friend exchange. Easy reading but fascinating all the same, specially the reproduction of the author's STASI file at the end of the book !!! Comes with a URL with the links to the DDR rock on the internet. Definitely worth reading !!!

Nice. Didn't know the serie, but interresting. Some unnecessarily scene but I guess you need that to sell in some countries. Decent plot and whodunnit.
Ideal on along travelling day :-) Nice police thriller from Scandinavia, in the the tradition of Mankell or Nesbø. I'll be looking for him next time I'm up there, s I prefer the originl version to translations - however good they might be.

Yet another nice mystery. As you may have noticed i'm (re)reading a whole batch of Agatha Christie at the moment. It is simply because they were written around 1920 and are surfacing in my usual channels since in many countries copyright expire after 100 years. Expect many more in a near future.
Nice twist, as usual with Agatha... Not a Poirot or Pyne or Marple for a change.

Dangereux, parce que déjà, on risque de passer une nuit blanche, vu qu'on parvient pas à le poser. Et plein d'idées réactionnaires qu'on connaît mais qui sont parfois particulièrement bien exprimées. Excellent bouquin; un seul regret: OU EST LA SUITE ??? On attend "Scanneurs" avec impatience. On particulièrement aimé: la numérotation des chapitres. On a moins aimé: le "Deus ex machina" Sinon cela a un petit côté "black mirror" tout à fait délicieux. Cela ferait un chouette épisode.
Most excellent !

Most excellent as most AC :-)
This is very different from what A.C. writes under her own name. While it is well written,it is more a love romance than a thriller.
But always good. Can't go wrong with her :-)

interessant bog, men ikke ligefrem din sædvanlige krimi. stadig værd at læse, selvom slutningen efter min mening kunne have været bedre
