Nice! 
She really is one of the great American writers - I hope more people read her work. I'd love to hear (more of) your thoughts!
lol - I'm not exactly sure what your teacher meant, but it made me laugh anyway. When I read Nietzsche in high school I hated him; I fancied myself a bit of an anarchist and he just waltzed over all of my aspirations and sensibilities. It took a while to appreciate his defiance and the challenges he posed. I've also grown to admire his unapologetic presence. Express your thoughts and feelings and let others judge you as they will.
I'll check out those recommendations, they sound intriguing!

Detour - First of a trilogy. Group of Astronauts are sent to Titan by a billionaire space programme. They come across something strange and when they return to Earth something isn't quite right. From the creator of Manifest tv show. It was ok 3/5
Absolute Batman Vol 2 - Loving the art and story of these Absolute DC lines changing the backstories of the heroes. Batman isn't the rich billionaire and grew up on the crime streets of Gotham. Issues 6-12 includes Mr Freeze and Bane 4.5/5
Anti Hero - Latest Orphan X (#11) novel sees the ex black ops assassin turned vigilante for the common man, help a young woman in New York who was kidnapped and assaulted.His investigation taking him from the low lives who commit the crimes to the online Pr0n industry that broadcasts their crimes online. Only this time the victim insists he does things her way...no killing. Had fun with this one after the last couple seemed to be on remote control. 4/5
There Is No Antimemetics Division - Now this one was a weird one. Reminded me a bit of the Remedy game Control. About a gov department that collects and investigates "antimemes". Ideas and items that can attack memory, identity and reality. Entities that can feed on your memories, can turn you invisible to everyone around you and nobody remembers that they are there. I had fun with it, but it can be confusing and reality can change quickly so pay attention. 4/5

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

Oh this sounds like a fun read! I've read a few Scandinavian horror novels over the years and they're always worth it.
I agree, I've really enjoyed the Scandinavian horror novels I've read. Another great Icelandic one I read recently was I Remember You by Yrsa Sigurðardóttir, a fantastically creepy ghost story.
