I will not surprise anything that isn’t already revealed on the cover copy of the novel. Everything else is, let us say, glossed over. The films are rather loyal to the premise and the first third or so of the novel, and the final few pages. I’d seen both movies, enjoyed them both, and so was very excited to come across a copy of the book. As has become a pattern with best selling Swedish thrillers, Hollywood wanted to do their version, and so an American version of the film, titled Let Me In, was released in 2010 starring Grace Moretz and Kodi Smit-McPhee. It wasn’t long before a movie was made in 2008.
This novel took Sweden by storm when it first came out in 2004, quickly becoming a best seller with critics lauding Lindqvist as the country’s Stephen King. I read this book because I really enjoyed the movie versions. Let The Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist
