The Silkworm by Robert Galbraith First, the disclaimer: I listened to this on audio, mostly while out biking with rain beating on my helmet, so my recollections way off. However, the audio has been reclaimed by Overdrive, so that's just how it's going to be. J. K. Rowling has a true gift for cre...

BLUF: I'm not a fan of this book, but will likely read the next one anyways.Cormoran Strike and his steady sidekick are back! After solving the Lula Landry case, Strike has become quite famous. On the plus side, the fame has resolved all traces of the debts Strike used to have. On the flip side, it’...

So I just finished listening to the audiobook of The Silkworm and I think the narrator did a much better job in this book then he did in the first.

I couldn't guess who the killer was in the first Cormoran Strike book, so what are the odds I'd be able to do it in the second novel, which features another novel inside it? Not very likely, it turns out. I remember thinking The Cuckoo's Calling was a bit slow as Strike interviews one suspect after ...

I don't read a lot of mystery or crime mystery for that matter, but damn do I love this series. I don't know if I would if I read a lot of it, maybe I would pick up on the clues too easily but with this series, Galbraith manages to tell me who it is and the convince me that I am wrong about 100 time...

I seem to be about the only person who does not like the Cormoran Strike novels. My criticism for this one is the same as for the first one. Strike talks with dozens of people, mostly about things that hardly have to do anything with the story. Then he visits another dozen, then he visits some of t...

I can't decide if I liked this better than the first. I'm not a huge mystery reader so this series is a breath of fresh air in a way and enjoyable because J.K Rowling just knows how to write. Cormoron Strike is back when Leonora Quine asks for his help in finding her missing author of a husband. T...
