I am so happy that AnnaBookBel is hosting the Nordic FINDS again in the beginning of 2023. AnnaBookBel says: ”For 2023, I will aim to read one book per country, and will simply encourage anyone who’d like to join in to pick up one or more titles from FINDS authors at any time during the month.”
This year I was a little bit disorganised in choosing books, so this time I am determined to be more alert. I took some time to find five books, one for each country. The Norwegian one comes as a recommendation from one of you bloggers (maybe even from this year’s FINDS), and the rest I found on a website called Scandinavia Standard The Best Contemporary Scandinavian Fiction to Read. I must admit I don’t even know all the Swedish authors they mention.
Here are my choices for books from each country.
Finland - They Know Not What They Do by Jussi Valtonen
Iceland - Cold as Hell (1st Áróra series) by Lilja Sigurdadottir
Norway - The Ice Palace by Tarjej Vesaas
Denmark - Silence in October by Jens Christian Gröndahl
Sweden - The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald
Looking forward to this first challenge of next year. I am sure it will come with new exciting books and authors.
