Troubled Blood by Robert Galbraith
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The best dynamic from our fav duo!
The case itself really was intriguing. I like the idea to solve a cold dead long forgotten cased. With this case we were shown how passionate, determined, dedicated and committed Cormoran and Robin were.
I also love the character development. Even some small characters like Pat, the new agency’s secretary, got a deep sense of it. Also some occurring characters like Shanker, Barkley (oh, I looove Barkley so much!), Lucy, Charlotte, Matthew (ewh), also Nick and Ilsa were dug deeper here. But the good thing is, we don’t get dragged too long. We can easily learn more about these characters by reading their conversation.
Also, if you’re a shipper for Cormoran and Robin’s relationship, this book feels like a drop of water we waited for so long. It’s clearly see how they developed their feelings toward each other. Their fight after the dinner at Max’s (Robin’s new landlord) place really open a lot of possibility to their relationship. Which I can’t wait to know more about it!
Talking about dragging, with 900+ pages, somehow I don’t feel bored reading this. Sometimes there are some parts that they all focused on other cases, but still, it’s engaging somehow. I think it’s because the dynamic from Cormoran and Robin is getting more and more interesting. I keep giggling reading them, like reading a teen lit. Some experiences that you seldom got from a detective stories, right?
