New Cormoran Strike book

[Hallelujah2020]

Released September 2025!!

@BabyCatFace it says valentine is her closest friend but in the other books he’s her half/step brother. Hopefully the editors have picked up everything else! I love TIBH but the mistake with edie annoys me every time!

Toddler wants to play with daddy before work. Hurray!!

I suppose that a relative can also be a friend too.
Charlotte probably didn’t have many of those tbf.

Yes that's what I mean - in the next chapter it clarifies they were also step siblings. Her half brother is also mentioned but he was a different character

So already I’ve missed my stop and am having to backtrack to get to work…

My kindle version has arrived (and I have now finished IBH, having read TRG out of order) but I don’t want to start it before I go on my holiday on Saturday! I have too much to do before going away to sit down with it now…

I woke at 4am, downloaded it and listened to the first few minutes before going back to sleep. I have a commute of over an hour so listened to a fair bit on my way to work!

What’s the Edie mistake?

@BabyCatFace got to it thanks! Good it’s explained.

@myheartburnstheretoo7 grant says edie is his niece which would make him Rachel ledwells cousin but rachel goes on about how it’s her aunt!

I think she used aunt to describe Edie because the age disparity made it closer to that type of relationship?

I teach children who the granny of two siblings in the school has children the same age. So the children are uncle/nephew. But I always think of them as cousins. That's kind of the other way round

You’re all a bad influence and as I was walking past Waterstones earlier a copy jumped into my hand…

My copy is due to arrive any time. I wish it would get here, I want to play on the Spoilers thread too and I daren't until I've read it.

Loving it so far. Five chapters in.

I'm still waiting impatiently for my copy to be delivered!

Just got home from my inset day to a lovely Amazon delivery , told DH he can sort tea out as my night is now planned. Pjs on in a min and then reading all night long . Can’t wait

Started it on Audible in the gym after work. I needed to fully concentrate, so no running, just walking on the treadmill. I'm 10k worth of listening in already!

Ooh I’m so grateful for this thread popping up in Active. I thought it was later in the month, but it’s waiting in my Audible library. That’s absolutely made my day!

on chapter 13. Really enjoying it! Want to speed through but also want to make it last! I’ll be getting out for a lot more walks with the motivation of listening to it!

Just gone to buy it - £18 on kindle?!? Robbery - it’s only £15 for the hardback. I’m actually quite annoyed.

Santa's been! But I'm not opening the package until after GBBO.

Chapter 16.

Ooh I’m on chapter 15!

Now the real question is - headphones in bed and no sleep?

I fell asleep listening and had to rewind about three hours! Thankfully nothing spoilers was happening when I woke up. I'm working from home today so will listen during tea break/lunch!

Popping in very briefly to say I'm on chapter 49 - it's magnificent and I am delighted with it thus far.
One of my favourite things not a spoiler is how Galbraith manages to create a picture of a new character in very few words and I can immediately picture the type of person they are - or a location and I'm there.

Off I pop again, I have reading to do!

I don’t know her publishers (or is it Amazon?) can justify the price for the Kindle e-book. Surely it costs less to produce than the paper version? In the end I paid £14.25 for the hardback (5% student discount) which feels reasonable and I’m enjoying reading it, it’s just a pain in the arse lugging it around.
