Anyone that enjoys a psychological legal thriller should get their hands on A Nearly Normal Family!
Set in Sweden, readers learn about Stella (a teenager accused of stabbing thirty-two-year-old Christopher Olsen), her father Adam (a pastor) and her mother Ulrika (a criminal defense attorney). With each family member telling the story from their perspective, this book is divided into three parts with short chapters that make it digestible and fast-paced.
M. T. Edvardsson has painted an impressive picture in this title, offering a glimpse into Sweden’s legal system and the not-so-perfect lives that many “ordinary” families tend to conceal. This story truly had me questioning how far I would go to protect the ones I love, making it worth the 400-page journey.
