I also want to join Geenoo, even though I haven't quite understood where the "solution was unveiled" or where "veiled hints" about the identity of the murderer were given. In fact, I extend the same invitation to him: should he decide, in a prior future or in another space-time dimension, to review "something", I recommend that he "not unveil the solution or provide veiled hints." Porcodiaz.

And what would be so childish?! Childish means "that denotes immaturity"... Frankly, I don't see what's immature about considering a badly written book. It seems obvious to me that my statement should be read in the sense of: "I haven't read a book this poorly written since The Da Vinci Code." Perhaps I should have specified that, but - I repeat - it seemed self-evident: I don't claim that there aren't worse-written books. It’s just that, in the last 4-5 years, I haven't encountered anything written so flat, colorless, and impersonal. It’s just a (too long) sequence of descriptions of places and events. And then, regarding Lisbeth, I only need the description you give in your review: "Bisex, judged psychologically infirm despite possessing an intellect beyond the ordinary, hacker, as light as a grissini, but lethal and tough as a coffin nail. Glacial and hermetic to the nth degree, she embodies the complexity of contemporary society within her 40 kilos." (it should be added: she gets laid by the male protagonist after 500 pages and she is even upset when he leaves her) = FOR ME, a freak show phenomenon. Then, for heaven's sake, maybe in the subsequent books the character is developed better, but the review speaks of this book, which is the only one I have read. By the way, let's recap: it's a conventional book in terms of plot; if we remove the protagonists, the other (20?!) characters are "mancia," the writing style is - I hope you'll agree - nothing exceptional. My goodness, the result doesn't seem like a masterpiece to me...

<<that presents an interesting case to solve>> I can agree with you on this. I confess that I too have become curious. But it must be said that the premise is not exactly a stroke of genius: a millionaire paying a journalist to investigate a murder that happened about 20 years ago... In short... Also, frankly, I don't remember any big twists... Sure, I didn't guess the identity of the murderer either, but 1) I'd say that's the bare minimum; 2) as I said before, too many characters are thrown into the mix just to make up numbers and "distract" the reader. <<the characterization of the characters is essential for the subsequent episodes>> maybe, since I haven't read them yet. But my judgment pertains to this book, and, I repeat, in my opinion, the characters are extremely banal and, above all, the result of a mishmash of stereotypes. The protagonist is a ruthless womanizer whose charm seems to be irresistible to any woman + a super cool journalist. Sure, he took a major hit, but just like that, the long-deserved redemption comes in and sets the scene for the final showdown with the really evil character (which, I imagine, will conclude in the third chapter). Regarding Lisbeth, I've already said: a character that embodies more or less everything commonly considered "alternative," bad, unflappable, who, however, ends up swooning for the protagonist. <<there's an excellent rendering of the scene, as if it were a movie>> That's exactly what I wanted to say earlier. I can't stand writers who feel the need to describe EVERYTHING, from her nail polish color to the type of lighter he uses (am I remembering correctly or is there a point where he even goes into detail about how Lisbeth fixed her motorcycle?!) Or those who feel compelled to tell everything about their characters from when they were 10 years old to just the other day... Then, to be fair, tastes are tastes, but nobody can take away my belief that this book could have been 200-300 pages shorter!! :)))

I listened to the song from the link and I confess that I didn't really like it. However, I enjoyed reading the review! :))

Good job because I’ve never heard this from Six Feet Under (to be honest, I didn’t even know of its existence), but there are a few too many little mistakes in the review… what a shame! Nice recommendation, anyway! :))

I had already mentioned it in the review of Terry: this book made me shit porcelain dolls from the Ming era. Perhaps the worst written book since The Da Vinci Code. I really can't stand these writers who have to spell EVERYTHING out about their characters: who they are, what they do, what they've done, what they think about this and that... The protagonists seemed mundane and stereotypical. Even Lisbeth is a half-caricature: dark borderline fantasy, but a steel fucker, semi-anorexic, yet an unbeatable hacker... nothing else?! There are family members introduced only to disappear for the rest of the book; they seem to be thrown in just to stir up a little chaos and hope the reader doesn’t figure out the culprit too soon. The entire middle section should have been 300 pages shorter. Two because I guess under the sun with a focaccia and a Coke it must be worth the money it costs.

To tell the truth, I thought I would impress her with special effects, offering a moonlit performance of "The Flight of the Bumblebee" in the version for "Dirty T-shirt with sauce and strings"... Do you think I'm going overboard with romance?!?
