latest read: the girl who saved the king of sweden

I enjoyed the book "the 100-year-old man who climbed out the window and disappeared" and so when I saw another book by the same author, I just grabbed it off the shelf.

Well, the story is about a girl called Nombeko from South Africa who ended up in Sweden after many ordeals she has to endure in her home country. She faced more complications while in Sweden and made worst by the fact that she is in possession of an atomic bomb. Then you add in twins; one of which she fell in love with. (!)

Yeap, the story is quite far-fetched and really quite tedious. 

The story just goes on and on without very much meaning to the whole plot.  

It could have ended any which way and that's not very pleasing as a book.

It took me two attempts to finally finish this story.

Don't get me wrong; It'snot that the story is bad; it's just that the first attempt was intertwined with work distractions and this book got sidelined. 

I was more than half way through the book in that first attempt but in my second attempt, I started from the beginning since I wanted the full effect of the book.

It is a most amusing story. You just want to go on and on and get to the end to know what exactly will happen to the 100-year-old man, Allan Emmanuel Karlsson.
