Barry reviewed The Thirst by Jo Nesbø
Review of 'The Thirst' on 'Goodreads'
1 star
I've been a huge fan of the Harry Hole books - I've read and loved all of the previous ones. But not this one. I struggled on until I was about a third of the way in before giving up (something I rarely do, but this book isn't worth any more effort). The characters have all become caricatures, and the situations are as cliched and predictable as it's possible to read. On top of that, there is something different about the style. I don't know if that's Jo Nesbo writing differently or if they are using a different translator.
