I knew the type of joy I’d feel when I started this book. The joy a Gilmore Girls fan would experience on an all expenses paid 2N3D trip to Stars Hollow if it actually existed. It’s a warm duvet I get to wrap myself in on a rainy day.
I have been reading and/or listening to this series for 12 years?!
Wasn’t it just yesterday that I read the news about JK Rowling’s Robert Galbraith beard being busted by an overly chatty third party? In my fuzzy memory, I read a story that the wife of someone working for her publishers gabbed, then analysts analysed and just knew. I didn’t believe this story back then and thought it was just wily marketing but it wasn’t and trust JK Rowling to actually sue and win. Turned out to be a loud mouth partner in a law firm who had a female friend who was equally loud mouthed.
Anyway my mind still keeps an eye out for the pet word that I feel she uses in every book she writes, and I swear it is – detritus. I remember reading this word for the first time when I read Harry Potter, then when I read Casual Vacancy, I noticed that she used it there too.
I’ve finished the book but I’m doing a second round, cause Robert Glenister’s voice is seriously Stephen Fry level awesome.
I just really need Robin and Strike to get together already.
