Jan. 16, 2025 Whether it’s a thriller, a thought-provoking romance, or a non-fiction read you’re after, there’ll be something here for anyone!Sharp Objects by Gillian FlynnDespite being better known for Gone Girl, it’s my opinion that Sharp Objects is Flynn’s best novel by a country mile. It’s dark and visceral, and one of the only books to ever make my skin crawl.

Banish your preconceptions regarding Scandinavian writing! This Swedish novel is neither a crime story, nor is it dark and gloomy. Allan Karlsson, the eponymous centenarian, cannot face his imminent birthday celebration at the old folks home, presided over by the mayor, so he impulsively clambers from his window and escapes in his slippers. Steven Crossley jubilantly recounts Allan's adventures as both his past and present escapades are intertwined.
