Genre: Book
Grade: A-
Notable People: Robert Galbraith
Title: Troubled Blood
Review: If you’ve read Harry Potter to your kids, you know how good a writer this woman is, but for reasons I can’t fathom, she writes this series under the Galbraith pseudonym. Regardless, it is a unique London based mystery series featuring one legged private detective, Cormoran (CB) Strike, a taciturn and complex crime solver and his sidekick, Robin. Their years long unresolved flirtation is intense and the mysteries to be solved extraordinarily convoluted. This one takes almost at 1000 ages to resolve, which may be a bit much, but the story in quite enthralling and the characters wonderfully developed. Bonus is the story meandering all over the Isles. This series is already a brilliant serial on HBO that has masterfully captured the books. Luv’ me some Strike.
