I recommended The Golden Cage by Camilla Läckberg to somebody recently and they asked me ‘What is it about?’.
I don’t usually do a lot of explanations so my reply was a one liner ‘Women stuff!’
And it truly is a book about women stuff, but it must be defined what women stuff is.
Women stuff in this instance encompasses such wide themes, that I feel I might have made a disservice to the book by labelling it as such. Therefore I want to set the record straight.
The Golden Cage by Camilla Läckberg is a highly entertaining read and it touches on themes of becoming, relationships, betrayal and revenge.
I really enjoyed it, it has some spicy bits too for those of us more spicy inclined, but the spiciness does not deter from the story, it completes it because it is a natural part of the characters’ relationships.
I have the sequel to this book, but I am not reading it now, I like to drag things on.
Once I have read that I will let you know if I liked it or not.
As a general rule though, Camilla Läckberg is interesting to read and the stories draw you in. I am quite a fan of Scandinavian writers and have been reading them for some time.
Camilla Läckberg has quite a few bestsellers under her belt and has established herself as a solid author.
I have read some of the books in the Fjällbacka series and enjoyed them a lot.
So, if you are a fan of the Nordic Noir genre Camilla Läckberg does it justice with her very unusual and interesting stories.
They are the best kind of women stuff!
Great - I will try and get hold of a copy. I have never read her, but am a fan of Nordic Noir or certainly was a few years ago, less so recently.
