Really strong and intriguing read. One of the greatest novels I've ever read.

I'm only halfway through but the brilliance of George R. R. Martin as a novelist is uncanny and undeniable.

Strindberg, August - Giftas

Great prose but the themes in this (marriatal problems and feminism in the 19th century) are a bit dated.
I'm going to check out other stuff by him though, his plays are canon and he is one of the most famous writers from my country :)

Grade: 2 / 4

Next read for me will be Homeros Illiad, it's gunna take a really long time to finnish.

The Force Awakens novel by Allen Dean Foster

6/10. It gave a little bit more insight than the motion picture, & as a Star Wars fan I enjoyed it.

Took a break from the Illiad to read The Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in the original language.
Really good!

Reading the Illiad in my native language Swedish takes about three times as much time per page compared to Stevenson in English.
