The Cuckoo's Calling - Robert Galbraith

The Cuckoo's Calling is the debut mystery novel in the Cormoran Strike series that J. K. Rowling have written under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith. The Silkworm and  Career of Evil are the next books in this series. I've read the second book, The Silkworm and going to buy the latest one in this series, Career of Evil, soon.

The Blurb:

When a troubled model falls to her death from a Mayfair balcony, it is assumed that she has committed suicide. However, her brother has his doubts and calls in private detective Cormoran Strike to investigate.

Strike is a war veteran - wounded both physically and psychologically - and his private life is in disarray. The Case gives him a financial lifeline but comes at a personal cost: the more he delves into the young model's world, the darker things become and the closer he gets to terrible danger...

My Thoughts: 

For someone who just started to read mystery/crime books, this was a great read. I enjoyed this book and could barely put it down. All the mystery and drama and trying to figure out what happened to the girl. I tried to find out the killer and still got shocked when Strike reveals who had done it! It's a story that will keep you guessing who the real killer is and all the mystery around this whole investigation.

Me Before You - Jojo Moyes

I read this book few years ago, but I love it so much that I wanted to talk about it anyway!

Me Before You was the first book that I read from Jojo Moyes. It's one of my favourite books and I'm going to read it again sometime. There's also a sequel to this book that came out this year called After You. I've already read it and it was great to read about Lou again and to read about her life after the first book and I'm going to write about it soon.

The Blurb:

Lou Clark knows lots of things.

She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick.

What Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that knowing what's coming is what keeps her sane.

Will Traynor knows his motorcycle accident took away his desire to live. He knows everything feels very small and rather joyless now, and he knows exactly how he's going to put a stop on that.

What Will doesn't know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of them knows they're going to change the other for all time.

My Thoughts:

I just love this book. Got no words to describe it. Even though it's been few years since i read it, the story is still stuck in my head. If there's a book I'm going to read again then it will be this one. The story is so good that you will most likely have tears in your eyes more than one time during the book. And you will also remember it for a really long time.

Dream a Little Dream - Giovanna Fletcher

This is my first review and I'm gonna start it with this lovely book by Giovanna Fletcher! I'm bad at writing reviews (actually, writing at all) so this is me telling about this book so here we go!

From the author of Billy and Me and You're the One that I Want, Giovanna Fletcher have released a new book called Dream a Little Dream. If you haven't read any of her books, i suggest that you should! I got all her books (apart from the sequel of Dream a Little Dream) and I really enjoy reading them. She got two christmas special sequels called Christmas with Billy and Me and Dream a Little Christmas Dream.

The Blurb:

Sarah is doing just fine...

Sure, she's been single for the last two years, and has to spend an uncomfortable amount of time around her ex-boyfriend, his perfect new girlfriend and all their mutual friends. And yes, her job as a PA to one of the most disgusting men in London is mind-numbingly tedious and her career is a constant disappointment to her mother. But it's really okay. She's happy(ish).

So it's not surprising that when Sarah starts dreaming about a handsome stranger, she begins to look forward to falling asleep every night. Reality isn't nearly as exciting. That is until her dream-stranger makes an unexpected real-life appearance, leaving Sarah questioning everything she thought she wanted.

Because no one ever really finds the person of their dreams... do they?

My Thoughts:

I enjoyed reading this book. It's a little bit different from her previous books, but not much. It's about Sarah's nightly dreams and her day to day life at her job and in private. It's charming and sweet and lovely (i could go on and on) to read and I smiled almost through the whole book. I also had tears in my eyes a few times. That's how good it was!

Unfortunately, it took me some time to finish this book, because of traveling and tired evenings. But if it wasn't for me being tired in the evenings and the traveling, then I would had finished it in 1-2 days. Luckily I got right back in it and continue reading without problem.

All in all, great book and I can't wait to read the christmas special of this one!

Hello and welcome!

With over 200 books and with over 100 of them read I wanted to start this blog to share my thoughts and stuff. So on this blog I'm going to talk about the books I've read and currently reading. I'm also going to talk about the ones I've just bought!
