A little dark for me, but still a well constructed mystery, with just enough hints and twists to keep you reading.

My 2nd time reading this with a bunch of reading buddies. So glad I did.
I’m starting from the beginning again & gonna work my way through as I haven’t read them all.
Harry Hole troubled though he may be is one of my fave guys.
Loved it. No arguments.

This was not your standard murder mystery and I really enjoyed the way Nesbo set up the storyline. The writing style contained a good amount of descriptive text without losing narrative momentum. A bit heavy on the sex for me, but not overwhelming. I will be starting Harry Hole's series from the beginning now. Extra points for the audiobook version: I love hearing the accents and correct pronunciation of non-English words and names.

The mystery was good and kept me guessing. Though, I didn't like that the main character was fallible in his theory, multiple times. It had the right amount of humor that kept me engaged. I plan to go back and read the first book in the series.

The Snowman shows how every single Harry Hole thriler is abosolutely brilliant, even if read out of order.
