What Members Thought
I really enjoyed this book. It was a good mystery with great characters, who were fully developed. It was also a bit of commentary on the celebrity life, which I found interesting. I hope I get to hang out with them and solve another mystery. I have found another detective to love next to my favorite Pendergast. Very well done.
The Cuckoo's Calling
Well, the reason it's called Cuckoo is sort of dumb, but the rest of the book was good! It was a tiny bit predictable in that you see "psychological thriller" and immediately you know the person you least suspect did it. But even then, the author still had me second and third guessing myself all the way until the very confession! I really liked the details that are put into the book too and you know pretty much everything that Strike knows so you can follow it yourself too! L ...more

Engaging plot, yet the writer lost me in the middle somewhere. I suddenly lost interest but then towards the end got hooked back again
The Cormoran Strike character grew on me, and Robin was likeable from the first! I would follow up with the next in the series.
The book is highly engrossing. Whenever a new character was introduced, my suspicion pointed at him/her. A perfect murder mystery, but its a tad too long. If u want to spice up your boring sunday morning then this is probably a good choice. A perfect murder mystery. You will surely like Cormoran Strike, due to his relatable nature and Robin too, for being the Girl Next Door.
I liked the second book in the series better than the first. I read them out of order but it still worked. I like Cameron and Robin characters.
Incredible. No matter how different the subject matter, the author knows how to ensure you become addicted to the characters, and the world in which they live.
