I know this is awful, but I love C.B. Strike and am so excited to watch the new series. Why is that awful? Because the C.B. Strike novels are written created by Robert Galbraith. So? So… that’s JK Rowling’s pseudonym. I hate supporting a transphobe, but these mysteries are so tasty and there are WAY more people involved in the show than her. She’s an Executive Producer, nothing more.

February Staff Pick: C.B. Strike – Troubled Blood (Streaming February 6)
