Interpretation Conducive To Books As Red as Blood (Lumikki Andersson #1)

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo for teens—this international bestseller is a thrilling, edge-of-your-seat Nordic noir that chills to the bone, and not just because of the bleak winter setting. Lumikki Andersson has made it a rule to stay out of things that do not involve her. She knows all too well that trouble comes to those who stick their nose where it doesn’t belong. But Lumikki’s rule is put to the test when she uncovers thousands of washed Euro notes hung to dry in her school’s darkroom and three of her classmates with blood on their hands. Literally. A web of lies and deception now has Lumikki on the run from those determined to get the money back—no matter the cost. At the center of the chaos: Polar Bear, the mythical drug lord who has managed to remain anonymous despite hosting lavish parties and having a notorious reputation. If Lumikki hopes to make it out alive, she’ll have to uncover the entire operation. Even the cold Finnish winter can’t hide a culprit determined to stain the streets red.

Article Of Books As Red as Blood (Lumikki Andersson #1)

**You can see this full review and more at Book Briefs: http://bookbriefs.net** 2.5/5As Red As Blood is the first book in the Snow white trilogy, or the Lumikki Andersson trilogy. I struggled with this book. It was originally written in Finnish and it takes placei n Finland, so maybe something was lost in translation, but I just could not get into this story. And that seems like a real shame to me, because I really, really liked the main girl Lumikki. I thought she was resilient, and smart. But

2,5 starsThere's a line on the cover of this book that says this novel is being sold in over 40 countries. The only way I could understand that fact would be by someone coming to me and saying Salla Simukka was giving publishing rights to everyone for free. I mean, no way publishers in 40 countries wanted to pay for THIS. And don't get me wrong, this book isn't BAD, but it's just so average it hurts.Unoriginal characters, unoriginal story, unoriginal plot twists. I haven't been cringing my teeth

3.5 stars

If I was a teenager, or maybe even early 20's, I would probably give this book 4 stars, or possibly even 4 1/2. But as an adult and a writer, there were a great many details (in plot and writing style) that bugged me, and I feel 3 stars is being slightly generous. It is difficult to know whether these annoyances are because of the author herself, or because of the translation, which can sometimes screw things up. I am trying to be fair here.As with all the books I receive through Amazon's Kindle

I completely enjoyed this! I wasn't sure what to expect (all the reviews were in Finnish) but I know that I love books with fairy tale twists and I adore mystery/thrillers. (Plus I haven't read enough!) The first chapter made me dubious, but then INTRODUCING Lumikki! And the book escalated to awesome. It's written in a more "thriller/mystery" style. So there's more POVs than just Lumikki and it's in 3rd person. I'm not keen on multiple POVs. I just don't connect to characters you only see

Hmmm. I quite like this one! When I initially picked up AS RED AS BLOOD, the first issue I ran into, believe it or not, was the fact that it was pitched as Six of Crows meets Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. And I know that pitches are usually so very off, and that they mean nothing, but the comparison to SoC a)made me miss that series so much, and b)gave me the impression that AS RED AS BLOOD was either very confident, or is going to be setting itself up for failure. Apparently, ARaB is very
