The Nordic List
Among the names that appear on lists of “What To Read After You Finish Larsson” are Henning Mankel, Jo Nesbo and Karin Fossum.
The Washington Post reviews Fossum’s latest, a “haunting psychological suspense novel,” which alternates chapters from the author’s point of view thus, “having some fun…with the old saw that, during the writing of a book, a novelist’s characters will take on lives of their own.”

Everyone is looking for something to read after reading Larsson. There are lots of good lists on the net with suggestions for persons who loved Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. In our library I posted a list of titles garnered from the myriad of lists floating the net. I have to tell you the title most appreciated was Smilla’s Sense of Snow by Peter Hoeg. One patron thought is was superior to Larsson’s in literary merit but all who have not read this one gave it high marks. Put it on your list. It’s worth the read.
