I am struggling through The Snowman by Jo Nesbro at the moment. Is it worth continuing?I am struggling through The Snowman by Jo Nesbro at the moment. Is it worth continuing? Leonie #review
I enjoyed it – different to usual crime books. I’m reading Macbeth, also by Jo Nesbo – interesting take!
I really struggled with it too ? it’s put me off reading any others by Nesbo! But other people have raved about it so each to their own ?
I really struggled with this too. Found it really really slow going but the story was good and did enjoy it at the end.
I also struggled and finished it but was not really impressed. I had same experience with another of his book Police.
I loved this book, film not so much. If you are struggling give up, I am sure you have maybe one or two books waiting to be read.
Yes, yes, yes! Fantastic scary book with a great ending. Like watching Hitchcock’s Psycho, you are so anxious for everyone.
I have to admit I gave up. I feel you have to like the lead character he was annoying, to much time feeling sorry for himself. Plot too confusing.
It’s a pretty good book.. The film was a load of crap though.. Similar disappointment when reading Gone Girl, then watching the film..
I struggled with it too, but was glad I persevered
Really enjoyed this book. I thought it was his best.
I gave up on it after 140 pages in

Read it years ago. I enjoyed it.
I didn’t like it found it hard work
I can’t read Jo Nesbo books . I quit 3rd chapter
I couldn’t get through it
I gave up. I can’t get on with Jo Nesbo books. ?
Yes, yes, yes! Fantastic scary book with a great ending. Like watching Hitchcock’s Psycho, you are so anxious for everyone.
Did you say you struggle? This is like the best book ever!
I think some of the author’s books can be hit and miss.
Films worse x
It is hard to read but you can finish it just to know who is the killer and why is he killing
@Meri agreed!
Or you can skip to the last chapter & go on to a more worthy book, thus saving time & angst!
Imo, no. I thought it incredibly drawn out and dull personally.
Oh yes… but don’t watch the film
Only saw the film.
I struggled as well, but it was all worth it in the end
Yes good book
I struggled with it but perceived, was glad I did in the end!
I did like the bit where Aled Jones sings, ‘Walking In The Air’ …
I don’t enjoy jo nesbo at all xxx
I love Nesbo books but I had trouble with that one x
I love The Snowman. Fantastic read.
Great book. I had the audio book too. Helps with the names.
i WILL PERSEVERE A LITTLE LONGER X
I have to admit I gave up. I feel you have to like the lead character he was annoying, to much time feeling sorry for himself. Plot too confusing.
I gave up on it twice. Just couldnt get into it.
I liked it just hang in there
Go back to the start of the series… The Batman… Excellent books if a little difficult.
It’s a pretty good book.. The film was a load of crap though.. Similar disappointment when reading Gone Girl, then watching the film..
I liked it but havnt enjoyed other books of his
I’ve read it more than once, so yes, I think it’s a fine book. I have not seen the movie.
