Oh my! I wasn't expecting to be pulled into this thrilling book quite as much as I was. Maggie Jenkins is likeable and relatable. I love how strong she is even when her vulnerabilities show. It's also great to have this genre of book led by a woman, a well written one at that.
The Wayward Target is so much more than I expected and I'm so pleased! It's definitely one to recommend to friends and family and if you have a book group add it to the list. If not start a book group with it!

Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated The Cuckoo's Calling in Books

I really liked The Cuckoo’s Calling. There were so many little details and hints that brought the whole thing together in the end (typical of Rowling, and I see that now) and it made for a wonderful detective novel. It wasn’t very “gripping,” though. It was “put-down-able.” At any given time I could stop and move on to something else. It kept me interested while I was reading, but when I needed to stop, it didn’t drag me back to my chair for another chapter. I feel like that gripping aspect is needed in a detective novel, and that’s the only thing that was missing. That being said, I still really loved the book. I loved Strike, the main character, and the supporting character he hires as his P.A. (unwillingly at first, but then he realizes how totally awesome she is). I really hope “Galbraith” continues with another book with these characters!
