What do I think about The Silkworm? Written by JK Rowling -
obviously a great writer and worth reading for that reason alone
But there were some things I didn't like
quite so much in this book:
Overly arcane chapter headings – a bit
pretentious
There was too much grisly stuff for me -
unnecessary sexual content - tending towards Casual Vacancy grittiness
I still like the detective/sidekick
characters a lot.
I'm looking forward to the next one in
the series and hope she reverts to Cuckoo's Calling style
I totally agree!!!! I am just on the last chapter but I couldn't have given a review better than you did. Have you read any of S.J. Bolton's work? She's quite good.
ReplyDeleteWill be looking out for this one. New to me.
