Waiting on Wednesday (14)

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at breaking the spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Title: The Son

Author: Jo Nesbø

Publishing: 5/13/2014

I know, I know... It's not Wednesday, but Thursday. But I was so busy yesterday that I didn't have the time to publish anything.

I absolutely love Nesbø, he is a great author and his books are always full of action.

Summary:

Sonny Lofthus, in his early thirties, has been in prison for the last dozen years: serving time for crimes he didn't commit. In exchange, he gets an uninterrupted supply of heroin- and the unexpected stream of fellow prisoners seeking out his uncanny abilities to soothe and absolve. His addiction started when his father committed suicide rather then be exposed as a corrupt cop, and now Sonny is the center of vortex of

corruption: prison staff, police, lawyers, a desperate priest - all of them focused on keeping him stoned and jailed, and all of them under the thumb of Oslo's crime overlord, the Twin.

When Sonny learns some long-hidden truths about his father he makes a brilliant escape, and begins hunting down the people responsible for the hideous crimes he's paid for. But he's also being hunted by the twin, the cops, and the only person who know the ultimate truth that Sonny is seeking. The question is, what will he do when they've cornered him?

Feature and Follow (5)

Feature and Follow is a weekly meme hosted by Alison Can Read and Parajunkee Q: What is the BIGGEST word you've seen used in a book lately - that made you stop and look it up? Might as well leave the definition & book too. A: To be honest, none. I haven't seen a word that I had to look up. Of course I have seen words I don't know, but I have understood them, since I understood the rest of the sentence.

Feature and Follow (4)

Feature and Follow is a weekly meme hosted by Alison Can Read and Parajunkee Q: What hyped up book do you think was not worth all the talk? A: The book The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruzi Zafon. A lot of people were saying it was amazing, and I did start on that book, but I never finished it. The book was so hard to read, I really don't think it was worth all the hype.
