And if Becki Newton showed her bewbs, my rating would be way higher than 10/10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strike 5,186 Posted December 30, 2024 Saw the movie. Is the series similar? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herbivore 1,115 Posted December 30, 2024 Yep, good show. Nice to see a new season. I used to read all of the Connelly books while on short flights. The Bosch series is great, for an easy read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you read the book, I think this actor makes a better Haller than MM did---but that might just be more time for character development. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,612 Posted December 30, 2024 Never saw the movie, but the TV series is very well written and a good watch... His books on Mickey Haller are a nice read as well... I tried the Bosch books, but just couldn't get into them... Maybe I will try to read them again at a later date... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch books are better than the Mickey Haller series (which is a Bosch spin off). The Bosch series are more Police Procedure type novels, while the Haller's would probably fall under the Legal Thriller category. Connelly has been phasing out the Bosch character, first having him retire and then called back to work as a volunteer with the "Cold Case" unit. The most recent Bosch books has him paired with LAPD Detective Renee Ballard solving cold cases for the most part, while dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment.

jerryskids 6,561 Posted December 30, 2024 We really enjoyed the first season, and I don't think we even knew there was a second let alone a third. I'll mention it to the wife and we'll put it on the list. I think we are caught up in the other series we are watching together (Dune Prophecy, The Rings of Power, and House of the Dragon), so maybe we'll start it soon.

WhiteWonder 2,675 Posted December 30, 2024 Yes. I enjoyed the first and second seasons. I watched the 3rd season but it was not nearly as good compared to the first two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There were parts of that book, finding the bugs in the office and using them against the defense, that literally had me laughing out loud, near tears to be honest. I just checked out his Wiki and realized I haven't read any of his books in years, any recommendations since say 2000? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
