The Cuckoo's Calling (Cormoran Strike)

The story was great with lots of twists and turns. I like a mystery that I haven't figured out by half way through the book. However, it was a little tedious in spots and sometimes the phrasing was a little predictable.

1/4/19: I'm changing my review to 3.5 stars rounded down to 3 on reread. I reread this because I need to read the 3rd and 4th in the series, but I've forgotten the first two in the series. Although I still enjoyed the book and all the clues and twists and turns a lot, it's not as good as some other mysteries that I've read before, especially in the first half like I mentioned in my review last time.

It's a good book. It doesn't drag on forever, the conclusion comes almost too quickly. I feel like I knew who is the killer was, but the detective really has it more detailed. Psychopath of course.

After my last book, this is just what I needed. A light-hearted, easy-to-read story. While it isn't a most original book, the characters are likeable and it is well-written. I would recommend this book to friends that are looking for a couple of days of entertainment.

Great summer read. Page turner. Loved the two main characters. Can’t wait to read the next one.
