Next tell her to write a story about Dumbledore's early years or maybe something told from the perspective of a low level employee who has to ferry messages between the PM and the MM.

But you're right, the storytelling is top notch, and the WRITING, and there were all these allusions to The Cuckoo's Calling in The Silkworm that I was sad I didn't get. So, maybe.

Rowling really is an incredible storyteller. Crime novels are usually books I'll only read once, but these will be worth rereading to see all the clues knowing how they fit together. And I can't wait to read more from "Mr Galbraith."Katie Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844778170761632779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-14214408382718757012014-09-22T12:12:41.338+01:002014-09-22T12:12:41.338+01:00I felt weird about reading anything by her that wa...I felt weird about reading anything by her that wasn't Harry Potter... but then I tried the Casual Vacancy and really enjoyed it, so I'm looking forward to reading the Cormoran Strike books.<br />I think my issue was that I love Harry Potter so much that I would be upset if her other books weren't as good, but it's stupid to not read something that you might love because you're afraid that you won't like it! I will make sure that I don't read the blurb before reading either of the books (I try not to read blurbs in general anyway, I like to be surprised by whatever I'm reading)Jimjamjennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02249933703532348607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-57460320517948578212014-09-22T11:52:54.674+01:002014-09-22T11:52:54.674+01:00YAY I loved this.

It was my enthusiastic explanation of SIlkworm that lead me to chop the end off my thumb off that time...<br />Also, JK has said she will probably write more Cormoran Strike books than Harry Potter.
