Probably Not a Zebra

November 29, 2018 by Ellesfena 2 Comments

Lethal White is the fourth book in the Cormoran Strike series, and it’s the one I liked best besides the first. This series has, on the whole, been a bit of a letdown for me. I really liked Cuckoo’s Calling and got excited about the possibility of a new series to enjoy, but then The Silkworm and Career of Evil were both so gross that I really didn’t enjoy them much at all. I still wanted to give this one a try because I like […]

I was drugged up when I wrote this.

November 28, 2018 by narfna 2 Comments

NB: I received a gratis copy of this book, but that has not affected the content of my review. This is a fact which you will quickly believe once you read the review. Thanks for my free copy, publishers!!!! I’ve been trying to write this review for a little while now, just staring at the blank screen, but I’m on some drugs right now that are making me diiiizzy*, so I apologize in advance if this review doesn’t come out as coherent as I’m thinking […]

#CBR10Bingo: Award Winner – Malin reads another book she’s owned for many years (Bingo #8)

November 23, 2018 by Malin Leave a Comment

#CBR10Bingo: Award Winner (LA Times Book Prize for Mystery/Thriller 2013 and an Anthony Award for Best Audio Book in 2014) Supermodel Lula Landry topples from her third floor balcony and cracks her head open on the snow-covered pavement far below. Strangely, the paparazzi that were surrounding her apartment building earlier in the evening were nowhere to be seen when it happened. After careful investigation, the police rule the death a suicide, although the tabloids have all manner of conspiracy theories, the most popular being that she […]

I came for JK Rowling, but I’m staying for the characters

October 21, 2018 by ingres77 2 Comments

This is the fourth book in the Cormoran Strike series, and if you enjoyed the previous three books, I’m guessing you’ll also like this one. At the end of the day, you probably don’t need me to sell this book to you, but it doesn’t disappoint, given all that came before. Lethal White picks up almost immediately after Career of Evil, which ended with Robin marrying her piece of shit boyfriend, Matthew. So we get to spend a good bit of time seeing how that […]

It’s Not You, It’s Me: It Was Good, It Was Intricate But I Just Didn’t Love It

October 18, 2018 by Jen K 3 Comments

Bingo Square (Round 2): Listicles (The Most Anticipated Book of Fall 2018) I never got into the habit of paying attention to release dates for most novels. Back in the day, I would find out a new novel from a beloved author was being released because I would find it on the “New Releases” display of the local Barnes and Noble – with some notable exceptions for very high profile novels.  With the transition to digital books, it’s been a bit harder for me to pay […]

Episode 1-39: Marvel Doesn’t Care About Black Humor

October 16, 2018 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2018/10/16/episode-1-39-marvel-doesnt-care-about-black-humor/ Wherein I review: 146. The Labyrinth of Spirits (The Cemetery of Forgotten Books #4) by Carlos Ruiz Zafon 147. Lethal White (Cormoran Strike #4) by Robert Galbraith 148. Ambush (Michael Bennett #11) by James Patterson The Cemetery of Forgotten Books adds more blocks to the every growing library.  JK Rowling always does great relationships, and does procedurals as well as wizarding.  And Ten is Enough the Cop puts up a lackluster murder involving the Canadian Mob vs the Mexican Cartels. Also, I bitch a […]
