Title: About as interesting as watching water freeze
Review: Smilla's seems to be the only person who realizes that the death of a young boy is not an accident, and she persues the truth relentlessly, and I mean relentlessly, until she uncovers a vast conspiracy. In the meanwhile, she gets bruised and banged up, nearly dies several times, and has the weirdest sex I have ever heard of. (Don't get the wrong idea, there's nothing particularly titillating in "Smilla' Sense of Snow.")I gave this book 2 stars because I like intelligent protagonists. Other than that, I thought it was way too long and I had a hard time keeping all the bad guys straight. Plus, I like mysteries where the reader has a least some small chance of figuring out what's behind it all, and with "Smilla" I had little to go on. My advice: say "no" to "Smilla's Sense of Snow."
