Ett spontank\u00f6p jag egentligen inte visste n\u00e5got om. Boken verkar rikta sig till en lite yngre publik, men jag tycker (kanske p.g.a. dess \u00e5lder?) att den skulle varit lite f\u00f6r sv\u00e5rl\u00e4st f\u00f6r mig som ung ton\u00e5ring. Den har inte \u00e5ldrats s\u00e5 bra, det \u00e4r n\u00e5got jag inte riktigt kan s\u00e4tta fingret p\u00e5. B\u00e5de g\u00e4llande story, tempo och spr\u00e5k.<\/div>\n
Alla karakt\u00e4rer i boken ”v\u00e4rvas” till ett bostadshus n\u00e4ra den mystiske Samuel Westings stora hus. De verkar alla ha n\u00e5got gemensamt med Westing, \u00e4ven om de inte k\u00e4nner varandra. I ber\u00e4ttelsen finns b\u00e5de barn och vuxna, och deras livs\u00f6den skildras lite om varandra. Ibland har jag sv\u00e5rt att h\u00e5lla reda p\u00e5 vem som \u00e4r vem.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Karakt\u00e4rerna kallas till Westings hus f\u00f6r att f\u00e5 ta del av uppl\u00e4sningen av hans testamente. De flesta \u00e4r chockade; varf\u00f6r just jag, som inte k\u00e4nner Mr. Westing? Advokaten som l\u00e4ser upp testamentet har tydliga instruktioner hur det ska g\u00f6ras, och snart inser de att de ska ta del av ett slags spel f\u00f6r att f\u00e5 \u00e4rva 200 miljoner dollar. De paras ihop tv\u00e5 och tv\u00e5, och f\u00e5r ledtr\u00e5dar att l\u00f6sa mysteriet: Mr. Westing h\u00e4vdar n\u00e4mligen att han inte dog en naturlig d\u00f6d och att hans m\u00f6rdare finns bland alla de som tillkallats till spelet.<\/div>\n
Boken var inte s\u00e5 tjock s\u00e5 den gick relativt l\u00e4tt att l\u00e4sa, men p\u00e5 n\u00e5got s\u00e4tt lyckades den inte alls f\u00e5nga in mig och jag fann den ganska tr\u00e5kig (trots lovande handling). Sv\u00e5rt att s\u00e4ga vad det exakt var, kanske ett lite utdaterat spr\u00e5k, m\u00e4rkliga h\u00e4ndelser som man inte f\u00f6rstod sig p\u00e5 och en stor r\u00f6ra av karakt\u00e4rer som var r\u00e4tt s\u00e5 ointressanta.\u00a0 Ledtr\u00e5darna gav inget till ber\u00e4ttelsen och gjorde en bara mera f\u00f6rvirrad.<\/div>\n
