Edward St Aubyn: Dunbar (fiction)

The story is about a business man who gives his corporation to his daughters. their relationship suffers and he is placed in a care home. this is basically a prison for him and he escapes but his family is closely behind.

The theme I'm picking up is regret and the language was quite hard to understand because of the happy use of extravagant words.

Dunbar is the main character, Peter is his drunken friend and the daughters.

I liked the book but it was a bit dull at times and a bit hard to understand sometimes but I give it a 8/10

This book is about a norwegian detective, named Harry Hole. He travels to Australia to take part in the investigation of the murder on a norwegian woman, Inger Holter. The investigation is led by the local detective Andrew Kensington, and together Harry and Andrew try to find out who murdered Inger, whose death seems to be a part of a long list of unsolved murders.

The Fault in Our Stars (romance novel)
- John Green

The book written by John Green is a romance novel mostly based on how it is to suffer from cancer. Hazel, a 16-year-old teenager suffers from cancer and knows that she'll die soon. She attends meetings where she meets a boy named Augustus. The boy is also sick and lives with osteosarcoma, bone cancer. Even though Hazel was a bit "off" against Augustus in the beginning, the couple fall deeply in love and explore life together.

John Green has a very beautiful and poetic language. He writes and express feelings through quotes, for example "My thoughts are stars I can't fathom into costellations". The quotes make the reading a lot more interesting and deep.

I think the book was really good. The author writes about sad subjects, and I got very emotional at some parts. I'd give the book a 9/10. Sometimes it was a bit hard to tag along but I did find the book very interesting and beautiful. I do recommend the book strongly.

12. The last people are DI George "Stinky" McClain and PC Ewan Richardson. PC Richardson finds out he has HIV and the police are on their way to bust the drug lord Dillon black.

I liked this book, it was short and interesting I'd probably give it a 9. There were so many twists in this book and you could never figure out where the story was heading.

Harper Lee: To kill a mockingbird (fiction)
The novel is set in a fictional town, Maycomb, in South Alabama. The book is written from a little girl, Scout's, perspective. Her father, Atticus Finch, is a lawyer and takes on a case where he defends a black man who is accused with 🤬 of a white girl. This has an impact on the whole family and it affects Scout.

The story is from the thirties, so it's a very different environment from now. It's about racism, and how Scout and her brother is affected by what's happening around them.

I think the novel was quite hard to read, when you're not used to english dialects. It took a while to get into the book, but beside that I think that it's a well written story. It deals with things that also is important today.

Detective Tom Reynolds is investigating a recent murder in a city park in Dublin when he finds connections to a heap of decades-old crimes. In 1975 a baby is abducted from its mother only minutes after its birth. 35 years later a reeking fresh corpse of a nun is found in a city park, and the weirdest thing of it all, these crimes seems to have a connection. Reynolds goes on a search for the missing links to puzzle these crimes together and eventually finds the gruesome truth.

The book takes place in the city of Dublin during the early 2010s. The description of the environment makes the reading more cozy but also thrilling at the same time.

The language used in the book was fairly simple and easy to comprehend. The text in the book was also written in quite a big font which made reading the 400 page-long-book not so prolonged at all.

The very dramatic beginning of the book made the "middle-pages" a bit too long but otherwise it was a decent book. 7/10¨

The Novel was written by the author Agatha Christie. The book was written year 1937. It's a detective story with the detective Hercule Poirot in the main role.

Hercule Poirot is on a vacation in Egypt. He has taken a break from his work and he needs to rest. He is living on a fancy hotel but out of nowhere he ends up in the middle of a trouble between som people that are deeply in love. But unfortunately there is two women and one man, and the man is married to one of them. After breaking up with the first one a bit earlier before the trip. The unlucky woman is stalking them on their honeymoon and things are fast getting worse. Out of nowhere Hercule Poirot now has multiple murders to solve...

The language in the book is pretty easy to understand. It's extremely entertaining even if I didn't solve the mystery. It was even quite unpleasant when I find out what really happened.

I really loved the book and I even went and saw the movie that is based on the book but I got a little disappointed. They changed many things from the book in the movie and it quite destroyed my experience.

The book 9/10 and the movie gets 5/10.

Daniel Keyes: Flowers for Algernon (science fiction)

A story about a mentally disabled, 32-year-old man named Charlie Gordon. He has been chosen for an experimental surgery that researchers hope will increase his intelligence. It has been successful on a lab mouse named Algernon, but Charlie is the first human to be tested. After the surgery Charlie’s intelligence begins to gradually improve. Soon enough he’s smarter than the scientists who developed the treatment. It seems as if the experiment will be a scientific breakthrough, until Algernon’s IQ suddenly starts to get lower.

The book deals with a lot of topics, one of them being the mistreatment of intellectually disabled. Other themes are the connection between intellect and social relationships, as well as the ethics of scientific experiments.

The story is told through progress reports written by Charlie. It’s an interesting perspective, since you can notice the different stages in his intellectual development. In the beginning there’s a lot of misspellings and very simple language, but later on it’s way more varied and complex.

I think the book was interesting, quite different from what I’ve read before, not at all what I expected, and also pretty sad.

My rating: 5.5/10 (probably because I never really got into the book, since I had a lot of other things going on)

- The book is comical in the way it describes violence. It's so over the top it doesn't feel right.
- The book ends in an disappointing way. Spoiler: The countess plant is foiled but the characters doesn't change in anyway. This removes alot of tension. I guess it ends the way it does beacuse it's a book in a series.

Score:

7/10

Twelve days of winter
The author is Stuart MacBride and the genre is crime. It is about 12 different people/caracters who live in a smal city in scotland.

In the city there is a lot of crime and uncertainty. It's about crime, drugs and murder. The language of the text is very easy to understand.

My rating: 8/10

Jojo Moyes is the author that made the book "me before you".
The genre is romance fiction and drama.

The story is that a woman, Lou (Louisa) is searching for a job and then gets a job as an assistent to a man named Will (William). He was in an accident and is now paralyzed from the stomach and down. In the beginning he is really rude to her because she is really happy and energic, also he just wants to die because of the accident. Later they will fall inlove with each other, but in the end he dies from assisted suicide.
It is in english and it is a really beautiful and sad story, I´ve also watched the movie and it is really similar to the book.
Louisa Clark (in the movie the role is played by Emilia Clarke) is the main character and she falls in love with William Traynor (in the movie the role is played by Sam Claflin). Also their families are a big part of the book, but I think Lou and Will are the most important.

I love this story and the book and I recommend reading it. It has around 480 pages.

Author: Marieke Nijkamp
young adult novel

The book is about a school shooting in Opportunity High. The book is told from four perspectives over the span of 54 harrowing minutes, terror reigns as one of the student's calculated revenge turns into the ultimate game of survival.  A few characters are Autumn, Tomas, Sylv, Claire and Tyler.

I think the book was very exciting with a few plotwists that I wasn't prepared for. I also liked when you got to read different persons perspectives from the same time. I give the book 8/10.

It's about time - Jeff Porcaro: The man and his music

Author: Robyn Flans
Biography

I think the language of the book was quite normal english. It wasn't too fancy nor too casual. The book is about Jeff Porcaro who was a session drummer and also the drummer for the band Toto. The book follows Jeff Porcaro from his childhood until his untimely death in 1992. The characters in the book are Jeff Porcaro himself, his family, band members and other musicians he has worked with.

8.5/10 Joel Söderström

I thought the book was quite good and also very interesting.

The plot is about a private investigater Sergio Ross who is determined to catch his sister´s killer. Hi is covinced that his sister´s death wasn´t an accident. But with all the clues hinting at a connection to another unsolved murder he has to join forces with Helen, a woman linked to both deaths, to find the truth.

The book is romantic and have a good language.

Helen and Sergio were interesting characters and I did enjoy the majority of the story.

I liked that the characters had to work together to try and solve the case. It was sad the way certain things happened, but realistic. The romance was fine, but not a favorite. I recommend this book for the suspense/mystery. The author kept me guessing throughout the book.

my rating: 7/10

Agatha Christie, Sparkling Cyanide
(Mystery, crime)

Agatha Christie's novel is similar to her other work, except that there is no Hercule Poirot like in her other books. This time it's a colonel Race in the role of the detective.

A family is eating dinner at a restaurant in Luxemburg. Suddenly the wife of George Barton dies from drinking champagne mixed with cyanide. The investigators say that it's suicide. 6 month later George decides to have another dinner with the same people. This time he dies in the same way. People think he also committed suicide. But George's good friend Colonel Race knew that it wasn't suicide. Turns out there he wasn't the target and the whole thing becomes a murder mystery.

The language isn't that hard if you're experienced with English.
The book was good but it got a bit boring at some points and other times a lot was happening.
Rating: 8.5/10

Verity

Author: Colleen Hoover
Genre: Crime & Thrillers

Theme and language: There were some difficult words but the book wasn't hard to read otherwise. The book consisted of a plot happening right now and also a diary that went back in time.

Characters:
Lowen Ashleigh is a broke and small writer from New York who has a lot of trauma in her life. She likes to write and makes a living out of selling books, but she is not famous. She also sleepwalks.

Verity Crawford: She is a famous writer who has written a famous book series from the villains perspective. She got injured in a car accident so she suffers from brain injuries and needs a nurse for everything. She can't speak or make any contact after the accident. She is a psychopath.

Jeremy Crawford: Veritys husband. Suffers a lot from the loss of his twin daughters. He is handsome and calm.

Plot and setting: After Veritys accident her firm decides to take in a new author to finish her book series. The firm chooses Lowen, since her writing style is close to Veritys.

While staying in the house Lowen finds Veritys old diary and starts to read about her life. She finds out how psychotic Verity is and what evil things she has done. At the same time she starts to fall in love with Jeremy, who is married.

Personal opinions: I rate the book 9/10. It was the perfect mix of romance and thriller and it scared me several times while I was reading it. The book has a crazy plot twist in the end, which makes the writer question everything about the book. I liked it very much and would recommend it to anyone who likes romance and crime.

Maggie O'Farrell: Hamnet (fiction)
O'Farrell's novel, set in Stratford-upon-Avon, is loosely based on the life of Shakespeare and the son he lost, Hamnet. Shakespare is never mentioned by name, but his family members are. The main characters are Agnes (the playwright's wife - Anne Hathaway), the twins Judith and Hamnet, and Susanna, their older sister.

At the beginning of the story, in 1596, Judith comes down with a fever, but it is her twin, Hamnet, who later dies at the age of eleven. The story is about the loss of a child, how it affects a marriage, and maybe also about what Hamnet and his family might have been like, as historical figures. Four years after Hamnet's death, his father wrote a play called "Hamlet". Maybe it was his way of dealing with his grief.

This novel is fairly easy to read; short chapters, regular language, and an intriguing, but sad, story.

My rating: 8.5/10
