📖 Jónína Leósdóttir is a highly experienced author who has written nearly thirty books, including the popular crime fiction series featuring Edda. A touch of humour is never far from Jónína’s work, and that is true of her crime novels as well. At the book café, she will present her latest novel, Algjör Perla (Absolute Pearl) 💎.
📚 Benný Sif Ísleifsdóttir has written for both children and adults and has earned praise from readers and critics alike for her work. Her novels are stories of fate rooted in Icelandic reality, and her latest book is no exception. Winter Thrushes❄️ is a historical novel set in 1969, following people at a crossroads in their lives who risk everything in the hope of finding connection and a sense of belonging ❤️.
