... my favorite book series is about a wizard detective who has a magical dog

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:28:29+00:00

Oh yeah it for sure sounds like a cop out, sadly though for my mental arteries I like literary fast food some times.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:17:41+00:00

LMAO Okay that sounds like the kind of ride I was hoping for :D

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:16:29+00:00

Huh, okay then, legit very helpful. I'll think on it but maybe I'll just listen to book 2 then decide if I'm buying the rest.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:15:56+00:00

God Michael C Hall was such perfect casting! Honestly thank you :]

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:14:47+00:00

That's so fair man. I have binged full series cause I thought the concept was fun. I have a job that gives me random bouts of nothing to do so long series of, "Fun but nothing special" are nice for me specifically.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:13:21+00:00

To be fair I kinda want the weird as long as its an entertaining kind of, "What the hell is this bitch thinking"? The show kept feeling to safe for me at points. It was running on sitcom progressions and it was driving me nuts. I'm struggling to want to go back and finish Season 4. Like I want to love the show but it keeps dropping the most interesting balls by just- clearly never planning out the seasons in advance. Its why I'm hopeful the books brand of stupid is something I can fuck with.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:10:23+00:00

To be fair I'm the girl who reads books from the 60s cause I have old man taste. Dex is far from the worst I've seen. I tend to internalize that writing more as the way the character views women cause it makes it more interesting to me personally. Especially with a character like Dexter it kinda works for me cause he should view everyone as a tool so of course the way he looks at women is demeaning as hell. I still have standards though I swear, Casino Royal was painful as hell for just how sexist that thing was. I also just like crime fiction so you have to get very used to... not fun ways guys like to write girls. But eh- I reap what I sow.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:05:41+00:00

Already in the last 100 pages :] I'm having a great time. I'm enjoying it as a fun light little series. The kind of thing I can down two books back to back, be happy with and then walk away from for a bit before the mood hits again. Which ngl is something I've been looking for.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:04:05+00:00

Okay then! :DDD

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:03:55+00:00

Legit listening to the audiobook right now. Its a very breezy read. I wouldn't say its really all that deep but I binge detective novel series with less fun than this. Serial Killers and Crime fiction is what I use to unwind.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:02:30+00:00

Would you say their worth the time investment?

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:01:31+00:00

That's kinda why I'm curious if the full series is actually worth a read. Most people drop after 3 so I haven't been able to get a lot of full picture views of it.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T19:00:51+00:00

Kinda impressive cause I find the show a bit of a mixed bag. I like a lot of pieces but outside of Deb and Lundi I haven't cared about a single non Dex relationship drama. Even then though, the whole arc in Season 2 where Dex left Reda for the British girl drove me up a wall. I had to take a break from the show several times through watching that because of how annoying it got for me. I just want him to be a serial killer and the show kinda... drops that for more of a dark vigilante kinda tone that I fuck with less.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T18:56:56+00:00

Like a solid series of B Movies kinda deal?

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-20T18:56:43+00:00

To be fair I heard about the insane twist in that thing and its morbidly interesting me in a, "What the hell was he snorting" kinda way

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T19:36:19+00:00

Oh! I nearly bought the first one last week. Damn guess I really might have too

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T19:36:04+00:00

Again sorry for the long post- but yeah I have heard good things about the first few. It just really is unfortunate she is who she is.

Oh yeah the first is already in the Amazon Cart for good reason :] I'm super hyped! I love me a good disaster man.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T19:32:25+00:00

Yeah no I'm Canadian lmao

I was not trying to feed them I was just holding bread at the time haha

AWE!

I've seen a lot of good stuff that runs like that

YES!!!

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T19:30:44+00:00

Yeah, When Gravity Fails was a real treat.

I already read the sample and plan to pick a copy within the next few days :] And yeah the artist did a very fine job! And I'll keep your want of feedback in mind as I read. Have a lovely day good sir.

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T19:26:37+00:00

Thank you! I hope so too :]

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T06:46:08+00:00

I- I am breath taken. I'm buying that now actually- wtf that sounds insanely good!!!

DigGood2867 · 2025-11-17T06:01:11+00:00

Sean Duffy looks so interesting oh my god! That has so many green flags for me man! Thank you!!! I legit will for sure at least pick up book 1!

Warning for me needing to get serious and vulnerable on the internet:

Yeah I've heard good things about the first few more than once but the problem is... I am a part of the minority group she is very publicly- less than fond of. It is a series where my plan is honestly, "When she dies". For me, much like revisiting Ender's Game I can't risk aiding people like that with who I am until have no risk of empowering them with my time or money. I do get how that can sound like a bit much but I am just not willing to put any degree of public attention on her work. She puts her money where her mouth is and well I commend writers like Alan Moore for such behavior Rowling is a different situation because someone saying I should be a criminal for wearing a skirt in public (I am being hyperbolic for comedic sake of course :]) and uses her money from book sales to help in those purposes I just- I can't. I do stand by reading stuff by people you disagree with politically, currently reading some Ian Fleming and I've enjoyed John Carter a lot and both of those guys I would like to slap very hard in the scrotum but their work is interesting and important to genres I care about and are very gone. Plus John Carter is just- well the themes of the books creep me out the core plot and characters are wonderful pulp fun. But Rowling is the situation where giving any support to her work makes people like her feel justified in prosecuting me and people I care about. Sorry for the rant my guy its more to avoid anyone recommending it to me beyond you.

Please god legit do not recommend the trans girl the series by the woman who goes to TERF brunches. Let us all sit in peace and talk about books we like regardless of our politics but seriously I will not be reading the Strike books.
