Pappersväggar was great! Already looking forward to more from Aivide Lindquist.
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norris was put on hold, since HP7 (sic) came out and I had to read that. Great ending to the series.
The writing style (of the first 100 pages or so) of Jonathan Strange... is a bit too detached to catch my interest. Hopefully it'll change further into the story.

Summer=vacation=reading!
I finished John Ajvide Lindqvists novels Låt den rätte komma in and Hanteringen av odöda this winter, and just bought his next short story collection, Pappersväggar.
"Swedens Stephen King" I read somewhere, and I agree.
I hope, for the sake of all non-swedes, that he gets translated to other languages real soon.
I also bought Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norris. I have really high expectations on this book.
Of course, the real reason I bought these books is to bear waiting for the final Harry Potter book. Ahem.

So, I live in a construction site...
(We're hoping to get the last 2 rooms in place before our guests arrive in less than a month)

We looked through old photos today, and found these before-and-after shots of the front room of our summer house.
Nice huh? :)

This is an idea I got feeling a bit bored playing WoW this sunday:
What if we would create real life quests for oneanother?
Questing in RPGs is all about setting a goal for yourself and achieving it. That simple.
OK, I'll go first:
"Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to collect $1/1 Euro/10 Swedish Crowns that you would not have earned otherwise (so you can't just take it from your paycheck), and give it to a charity of your choice".
(Disclaimer: I'm not telling you to commit crime)
Please use comments to report back what you did to complete the quest, and to present your own quest ideas.
Good luck! :)

The pony tail got a little dorky in the long run.
So I cut my hair and grew a beard.
This is what I look like now (like a dork in short hair and beard, that is :)

I just found this old photo of my cat Stinas kittens..
I know already 50% of all pics on the net is cats and kittens (as to the other half, well "know what i mean nudge nudge?").
I just can't resist posting it, they're just too damn cute!
