Might reread TGCF again...

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love that they pause in the middle of villain stuff to tell WWX about how LWJ pines.

Loyalty makes this whole series worth rereading, but Longing! I cannot believe i am working rn when i could be reading Longing.

Loyalty is probably my favorite chapter set.

Im actually definitively on Seven Seas book 4 but! I resent this books rn for not being TGCF. And for all the flash backs. I get that theyre to remind us as WWX is remembering, but wow its a pace killer.

The yiling patriarch is dead, rejoice 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I forgot how silly this book is. Like what do you mean a giant statue of HIMSELF.

Jun wu is a bitch

Going to power through, but this is so not my type of book. Its in the vein of Big Swiss and Rabbit Hole where the main character is an obsessed loser who cant help but be an asshole to every single person in their life with no self awareness.

I dont think ive ever cringed so hard in so long.

Her moms conclusion might be wrong, but shes spot on.

I would read Bloch and Lake any day of the fucking week lets fucking go!!!!!!!!!!

In a way, this book is about money/capital vs community

Add to the roster:
Mob boss for the defense.

Michael Connelly could never write Eddy Flynn, but Cavanagh could write Micky Haller in his SLEEP.

I forgot the line up here is:
Conman lawyer
Alcoholic retired judge and his dog
The literal terminator
A hit man
And a very competent secretary.

I would kill for a croissant with apricot filling

Micky constantly goes on and on about how he needs to stand for the underdog and thats why he can never see his kid, but if he cared that much he would be a public defender, not a private defense attorney and he would make time for his kid. His ex wife does it for her kid and she works for the DA! And then Micky RUNS FOR DA? Like he doesnt give a fuck about anything but money and i wish would stop saying otherwise.

This is why these books are almost too bad to read--in this scene theyre using legal jargon:
"Did you read the 123?" She asked. A 123 is a legal blah blah blah that blah blah blah because this reason. "Yeah i read the [exactly what the last sentence was] and i think it points to ABC" i replied. ABC is a legal blah blah blah government blah. "I can see that since ABC deals with [exactly what the last sentence was]"

The sustained hostility toward women is really something huh

Im seeing now that steve cavanagh vastly improved on series like these because this ones tough to get through.
Micky is now okay getting opiates,
The investigators relationship with biker gang has been told to us at least two (same details just like all the other times).
We are told that the investigator and lorna are married (first mention on this one).

Like it feels so unedited.

The lack of continuity bothers the piss out of me

My biggest problem with this book is that it develops bosch over the team micky has been building. Like what about patrick? There are no lincolns in this lincoln lawyer book. But we sure get a lot of hong kong drops from the last bosch book with nothing more. This doesnt feel like a LL story.

Learning on book three i need to have read 21 other books to understand the Bosch pov actually pisses me off

I was going to make a shelf called "weird shit" but it turned out i already had one.

Cut to Steve Cavanagh making notes

Im pretty sure that micky adjusted his drivers pay for inflation.

My favorite part of these books is when the lawyer man thinks he can get his ex-wife back and is often surprised when that is not the case
