“The worst thing that good cold do to evil.was ignore it.“
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 #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 🥸
pickSecond 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.
pickShe Persisted by Chelsea Clinton tell the tale of 13 American women who have made a difference around the world. This book uses real life stories to introduce young children to women who have continued to break barriers. This book helps to empower females to step out of the box and create the change they wanna see in the world.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A history of “The Boy Who Lived,” or more aptly, a deep dive into the process, publication, hype, and ultimately HP‘s incredible success. Written by The Leaky Cauldron webmaster, journalist Melissa Anelli, this is somewhat a memoir of her experiences, but also a thorough look at the popular culture phenomenon. That book one was rejected several times, and the series went on to become so iconic, is pretty amazing!
pickI‘ve avoided reading the Strike series mainly because the author is so popular and I kind of steer away from things that seem overhyped, but after seeing a lot of people praising the series, I gave it a go, and I must say I‘m enjoying the series, though more for the relationship between Strike and Robin that the crime element.

Just finished this for my first ever #LMPBC!
Hmm I feel like this didn't quite hit the goal for a thrill read but the suspense was definitely present by the end.
I enjoy a good crime fiction every once in while and I was not disappointed by this at all. It kept me intrigued but it was a bit long. Which scares me because the next books in the series are even longer! 😳
Solid 4.25 star. Hope you like it too!
Started this book for my first ever round of #LMPBC.
This book has been on my shelf for 2 years!
I love the drama of a criminal investigation book so i predict a 4 star read!
When troubled model Lula Landry falls to her death from a snow-covered Mayfair balcony, it is assumed that she has committed suicide. However, her brother has his doubts, and calls in private investigator Cormoran Strike to look into the case.
