First of all, if I had known beforehand that Robert Galbraith was just a pen name for J.K. Rowling I wouldn't have picked this book up. Alas, I didn't and I only found out while already reading and I'm sorry to say, but it definitely affected my reading experience since I (and probably everybody and their mum) know about her personal opinions on several topics.

I liked the general idea and that the book included tweets and chat messages (even though the formating made it harder to read). The MCs were ok, albeit at times quite stereotypical.
