“When you are young, and beautiful, you can be very cruel.”
Truth.
23.13 The Cuckoo’s Calling
This book took me far too long to get through. I picked it
up thinking a well-written mystery would pull me in immediately, and once it
was the hottest headline that JK Rowling was the actual author behind the story
I jumped on it. And then I
floundered. Seriously floundered.
It took me weeks to read, and I found myself trying to avoid
it. There was something about the
whole thing that was very sad. Of
course, a murder mystery isn’t the most cherry of subject but that wasn’t
all. Everyone here was sad. Lying about who they were or what they
wanted. Refusing to ask help from
the ones they should trust most.
There was just something about it that made me feel even more shut in
and lonely – and that was the last thing I needed when I picked it up.
