Robert Galbraith is a pseudonym for JK Rowling. In the Cormoran Strike series, as in the Potter series, she draws tangible characters you become invested in. The growing friendship between Cormoran and Robin is a lovely subplot to the murder mysteries. Can't wait for the fifth one, Troubled Blood, coming in September!

I really liked this book. I like summer because summer is a fun time to go in the pool, and you can go to the park and play on your swing set. You can also play in the sprinkler. You can also go camping, too.

I would recommend this book. It kept my attention and I looked forward to reading every day. I could picture the story.

Great story. Patterson has added another author to his crew

This book really makes you think about the horrible events on 9/11. It’s crazy to think that people who actually contributed to the terrorist acts could still be living among us

A very good read and an interesting story. I like the characters she used and the adventure she took you on. I would recommend this to all the readers of Danielle Steele.

We LOVE Billie B Brown...Perfect for quick family read alouds, or assisted beginner reads. We like guessing what the 'B' stands for in each book. In this one, we were proud of Billie for making the right decision to protect Jack's feelings & make a new friend in the process!

4 stars for an easy fun read. Jimm Juree is an ex journalist living with her family at the southern end of Thailand on the Gulf of Thailand coast. Her mother sold their family home in Chang Mai and purchased a run down 5 cabin bungalow guest hotel. Jimm is out walking their 2 dogs on the beach when one of them discovers a head. She tells her grandad. The police are notified. But they turn the head over to the SRM(Southern Rescue Mission Foundation) a scam charity. Jimm thinks that something is strange and begins to investigate. She also has to deal with 2 mysterious guests, who pay in cash, give false names, and have removed license plates from their car. There are some laugh out loud lines in this book of quirky characters. Grandad is a retired traffic policeman. Jimm has a transgender sister who is a tech whiz. She also has fearsome looking brother, Arny, who is actually a gentle shy man, in love with a body builder woman older than his mother. How this group of characters solve the case of the head makes for a pleasnt story as they navigate the complicated issues of police/government corruption and incompetence. The author bio states that he was born in London, and has worked as a teacher in Israel, Australia, U.S. and Japan, before moving to Thailand. He dedicated this book to the lounge singers and karaoke singers of Thailand who bravely attack English songs phonetically without suffering the inconvenience of meaning. One quote: "It's been a Hard Day's Night, I should be Sleeping on Kellogg's" This was a library book.

Appreciated getting a few days advance copy of this book- -With the pandemic, that wasn’t much, though! Somehow I can’t give this a 5- loved the characters, the story, the setting, the economy of words that is perfect Nora Roberts-The Latina maid and the privileged characters , the man that comes to kill her is described-doesn’t need to be- I think the times have made me hyper sensitive! I enjoy her books when there is a touch more suspense. She continues to be one of my favorite authors, and I will never forget meeting her in person, at a grocery store visit, of all places!

If you are a Rick Riordan fan, this is a must read. Lots of exciting characters and happenings, including your old friends Percy and Annabeth, finally reunited again, but also introducing a lot of new characters who you will be excited to learn about. If you are new to Rick Riordan it is important to note that this is the 3rd in the series so you will likely want to start with the Lost Hero. Enjoy!
