I loved Dutch crime novels called: Baantjer. Their pretty cool. I've read quite a lot of em.
I'm also a big fan of (big surprise) Lion Boy
. I love that trioligy, even though the third part is still to be released. Initialy I bought it because, hey, it had a talking lions in it. Thats cool! But when I was reading, I found out that the story was actualy realy good and I got addicted and it eventualy even made me start writing my own novel which is losely based on those novels.
