Review: The Only Harmless Great Thing

The Only Harmless Great Thing The Only Harmless Great Thing by Brooke Bolander
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Well, this one was definitely not for me. It may be that I'm not a native English speaker, or that I'm not really used to contemporary literature, but I had really no idea what was going on. I somehow experienced that this is something really deep and moving and the language used is beautiful, but it failed to resonate with me. 2 stars, but it's probably mainly my fault.

Review: The Silence of the Lambs

Image
The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris My rating: 5 of 5 stars I've read this book like 3 times when I was a teenager, but apart from the main plot I only remembered that I loved it very much. I think I didn't even know at that time that this was the part of a series. Now though I intend to read the whole series in the "correct" order so after finishing Red Dragon, I re-read Silence of the Lambs as well. Even though some memories came back during reading it was still a very exciting and enjoyable experience. Thriller and horror and not my main go-to genre, but I think Hannibal Lecter is one of the best villains of all time. I totally recommend it to anyone, even if not having read Red Dragon. So far, this is the best part of the series for me. View all my reviews
