Talk about sending Department Q running in circles. Case within case within case - they all seem to run into each other. And poor Rose. Her mental illness seems to be worse than they all realized, and her friends in the department just want to help, but are they? This one is complicated. Department Q keeps running into the men upstairs and them into Dept Q with a TV film crew in the middle while a serial killer keeps running over women with her car. And no one can find Rose. Highly recommended.

Serien om Avdelning Q hör till en av de där självklara, som jag bara måste äga och läsa. Jag har gillat alla tidigare sex delar, även om det har varit lite olika mycket. Det har känts som att böckerna tappat stilen lite, om man jämför med den allra första i alla fall. Därför hade jag kanske inte skyhöga förväntningar på Selfies, även om jag såg fram emot att läsa den. Läs mer på min blogg
It's been a long time since I read any books in this series. I remember really enjoying the first 2 or 3 books. Coming back with this book... I don't know. If it weren't for the fact that I was reading this for a summer reading challenge, I likely wouldn't have finished it. I told my preteen about how I wasn't enjoying it, and she asked why. I gave her a synopsis of what had happened so far, and she told me, "That's so extra." I guess that's it. She hit the nail on the head. I just googled extra as slang: "trying too hard, over the top, excessive, maybe a little dramatic." I think that really sums it up.

Even though I think I’ve moved in from cold climate crime to cosy mysteries, I still admire Adler-Olsen’s clear writing style and like his characters Assad, Rose and Gordon who surround the irascible Carl Mørck
