Your review really makes me want to read it. I don't know about having the time, but it sounds great.

I gave up reading crime novels back when I had real life horrors with a stalker and felt that I needed to cleanse my mind of the fear of all that could happen. I presently wanted to support JK though, and ordering the Strike series was an easy in. And I really enjoyed them. Book 3 has a part - no spoiler! - where Robin is in a situation which she is able to resolve and overcome on her own and it felt like a gift to me, and the me with the things I had personally been through. I'm sure you'll be able to break it down better than that once read, but it to me was powerful. I watch the series too, and like all TV, it isn't the books, but they do well and it's cast very well, and I always look forward to the adaptations coming out. I'm now tackling Harry Potter for the first time ever! I just finished book three and I'm totally invested for book four. To have an ounce of her talent for story telling would be a wondrous thing. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series. This review was spot on, you nailed her nailing of it, and I hope the woman herself gets to read it sometime.
