Today’s track: Blackeyed Blonde by Red Hot Chili Peppers 🎵
This song takes me straight back to my childhood. Me and my friend watched Thrashin’, saw this wild and crazy band, and were blown away. Soon after we had our own: T.I.L.T. (The Incredible Love Tractors). Guess we wanted to be crazy too 😅

When the circus folds, another town awaits. Another crowd. Smiles that shine, some painted on. Through the mask, a weary voice: It’s showtime…

Finished reading: Gruppen by Sigge Eklund 📚
It was an OK read, no more, no less. Nothing that blew me away, but not a waste of time either. One of those in-between books you pick up, read, and then move on.

Finished reading: The Night Stalker by Chris Carter 📚
The third book in this horrifying series, and yet another great one. Dark, twisted, and impossible to put down.

Finished reading: Wild and Crazy Guys by Nick de Semlyen 📚
The stories live up to the title. A crazy ride! Fun trivia and behind-the-scenes gems, but also tragedy. Comedy and tragedy often walk together. A great read!

Finished reading: Atomic Habits by James Clear 📚
Nah. Some good bits, but formulaic and uninspiring. More like a blog series than a book, though I get why the book clicks for many.

Finished reading: New Thinking by Dagogo Altraide 📚
An interesting read! It’s cool to see how much of today’s technology exists thanks to really old inventions. But the book was also a bit of a sad reminder of how often war and the military have driven innovation throughout history.

Finished reading: The Executioner by Chris Carter 📚
Yep, he’s done it again! Without a doubt the best series I’ve come across in the genre. Not for the faint-hearted, that’s for sure — but if you’re into dark crime, you’re gonna love this series.

Finished reading: Creativity, Inc. (The Expanded Edition) by Ed Catmull 📚
A great read! Packed with inspiring thoughts on creative work and plenty of fun Pixar trivia. Plus, some fascinating, more personal stories about Steve Jobs.

Finished reading: Battle Scars by Jason Fox 📚
An honest, interesting, and at times deeply unsettling read. It paints a raw and personal picture of one of the many terrible aftereffects war can leave behind — and the road back to recovery.

Finished reading: Studie i mänskligt beteende by Lena Andersson 📚
I really like her books! She has a fantastic ability to capture people’s quirks in a way that’s both hilarious and touching.

Finished reading: The Innovators by Walter Isaacson 📚
Very interesting read! From the invention of the computer to the birth of blogs. Fascinating stories and fun facts, like how the terms bug and debugging came to be.

Finished reading: Crucifix Killer by Chris Carter 📚
A new favorite of mine in the crime/thriller genre, and I’m not just saying that because the main character is named Robert.

Finished reading: Från Noice till nu by Peo Thyrén 📚
A nostalgic read for anyone who remembers Noice at their late ’70s and early ’80s peak. Fascinating, yet heartbreaking, as half the band’s original members died young. A bittersweet tale of fame’s glow and cost.

Finished reading: Thorsten Flinck : En självbiografi by Thorsten Flinck 📚
What a ride! Great book, both inspiring and incredibly tragic at the same time. Definitely worth picking up, especially if you’ve also read Mikael Persbrandt’s book – they make for a really interesting pair to read together.

Finished reading: Be Useful by Arnold Schwarzenegger 📚
An inspiring read. Also some fun trivia, like Danny DeVito filling Arnold’s cigar with weed on the set of Twins. The book even made me reflect on my own blogging in a way.

Finished reading: The Empty Chair by Jeffery Deaver 📚
It was good, but not quite as strong as the previous books in the series. Still had solid suspense and some nice twists, but it didn’t grab me quite the same way.

Finished reading: Tio tankar för själens hunger by Antje Jackelen 📚
Not my cup of tea, but it’s a good book that will definitely appeal to a lot of people more than it did to me. One interesting thing I picked up was that René “I think, therefore I am” Descartes died in Stockholm. News to me!

Finished reading: Wolf by Mo Hayder 📚
A good book with a thrilling, unpredictable ending, but the middle dragged and lacked engagement. Worth reading, though not my favorite in the series.

Finished reading: I May Be Wrong by Björn Natthiko Lindeblad 📚
A truly wonderful read, filled with profound and insightful wisdom. It’s one of those special books you can pick up and read again and again, always finding something new to reflect on.

Finished reading: The Coffin Dancer by Jeffery Deaver 📚
An outstanding thriller! Even better than the last Lincoln Rhyme book, which I loved. Gripping from start to finish!

Finished reading: Mikael Persbrandt by Mikael Persbrandt 📚
What a wild ride! A great example of when reality surpasses fiction. It’s a story more unbelievable than any role he’s ever played. Definitely a must-read … at least if you’re from Sweden.
