The Room by Jonas Karlsson

     Great things come in small packages. This little book was fantastic! I had been looking in all the local bookstores for The Room but no one had it. Thankfully I found it on Blogging for Books. It didn't take long to read it, not even 24 hours. The flow was great and the story never stopped dragging me in.

     Bjorn is a quirky character who thinks very highly of himself. He is judgmental and a loner. He's not someone I would like at all.  He left one job and started another, determined to climb the ladder faster than anyone.  And then he finds the room.

     The room is a place Bjorn can go to regroup, rest and relax. It doesn't seem to be anyone's office at the moment so Bjorn keeps going in. Only his colleagues say he is just standing by the wall in a world of his own.  Does the room exist? Who knows!  That's the part of the book I just can't figure out, kind of like the white gold/blue black dress. You just have to read it and decide for yourself.
