Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m not quite sure why the title but it‘s about the death of one of 3 adopted children who was a supermodel and her brother‘s convinced she was murdered so he asks Cormoran Strike, a childhood friend of his brother, to investigate. I‘m 3 chapters from the end and I have a suspect in mind … but we‘ll see if I‘m right.
It‘s not overused and is in context - I suppose - but I wish there was less swearing by the characters.

My #roll100 for November with @PuddleJumper laughing so hard that two books from the same series got picked, even with the numbers being so far apart!

I love all of the books of Fantastic beasts...

My #library has more donations than we‘ll ever sell at our booksale and since we‘re going to be having an #alteredbook contest this summer, I made an example. Everything is made from the book, except the mini book covers, which I printed out, and the little paintings, which I printed out and glued onto some plastic buttons I had laying around. And since it‘s a Strike book, I was able to sneak my signature in it 🥸

This was so much fun! I really enjoy these characters.

Second time reading this after a number of years, thought I would read it again before I start watching the series. I rather enjoyed it as I did the first time and am looking forward to reading the entire Strike series.

This is pure dumb fun. I enjoyed reading the detailed descriptions of elite, wealthy settings. I also appreciated how the dialogue and conversation drove the story. Finally, the slow pace with which Robin and Strike‘s relationship develops is an added bonus. I‘ll be checking out the next book.

Up next: another one that‘s been on my bookshelf for ages…and has been recommended by so many friends!

I liked it better than The Ink Black Heart and this one really makes Cormoran Strike as one of the best new fiction detective characters in recent times #runninggrave #robertgalbraith #jkrowling.
