Well, this candy is made there. Apparently, you can make a "medicine" from it which is a "cure for all ailments" by crushing 2 bags & combining it with 1.5 liters of vodka. :o At least, that's what it says on Amazon.

Just knowing this makes me want to read...

...FINLAND all the more. Yep, we're going to a place quite different from May's Zimbabwe book.

We'll vote on which book to read on May 15 from a list of at least 6 books across genres. Before then, if you have any Finnish books to suggest, let us know. Just remember that we are specific in the books we read. They must:

- Largely occur in Finland unless the world described is an alternate universe
- Be written by an author born there who has spent a good portion of their life there
- Exist in paperback & ebook available on both Amazon & Kindle at least in the US & hopefully elsewhere
