wingedcreature 's review for:

The Silkworm by Robert Galbraith
4.0

I really liked it! I mean, it is J.K. Rowling, and I'm not at all surprised that she writes mysteries so well. I definitely wanted to spend more time in the car listening, because I couldn't wait to see who was behind Quine's disappearance and eventual death. Thankfully, I was able to jump right in without having read The Cuckoo's Calling, and I liked it enough that I'm definitely looking forward to reading the other books in the series.

I did like it as an audio book (except it was such a long audio book that I really needed a break from audio books), and while Glenister is a great voice for Strike, I don't know that I'd seek him out as a narrator. Still, if I started listening to a book he narrated, I'd still listen to the book.

My Rating: 4 stars. I didn't love it, but it's a really good mystery!
