It's so frustrating to have a crush on a fictional character!
Has anyone else been enjoying the Cormoran Strike novels?

He is the main character of Rowling's The Cuckoo's Calling and the latest one in the series, can't remember the name of it. Wonderful character and story. I am giving her credit for inspiring our Steve to write his own version with Mr. Mercedes.Cormoran Strike? Rowling? I read the first three HP-books and felt this is not for me. Read The Casual Vacancy and was waiting the whole novel for something that didn't happen. Who is CS? Judging from your reactions he seems like a real stud/looker!

OH, i see. Something i have missed. Gotta put it on my to read list. When so many persons with taste recommend it gotta have something.The Silkworm. I liked it even more than The Cuckoo's Calling, and I liked that one quite a bit
Kurben , for me it's not so much that Cormoran is handsome (I'm not actually sure that he would be considered traditionally handsome), but that he's strikingly well characterized--a strong, smart, moral character (without being angelic). Rowling (writing as Robert Galbraith) did very well with him.
I always pictured the body guard that was in the 'accident' that killed Princess Diana as Cormoran.There's a British character actor, and I have such a clear picture of him in my head, who would be perfect as CS. I can't remember if he was in Bridget Jones or Notting Hill, but he wasn't one of the primary characters. He was tall and not fat, but husky, with rosy cheeks and black hair and eyes and a big nose. I've scoured IMDB, looking at every British movie from Four Weddings and a Funeral to Love, Actually, but I can't find him. He looked like he could have been a much younger cousin of Stephen Fry, with pale skin and dark features. It's driving me mad!

Know him but can't see him here.Colin Firth?
I don't actually know the (book) character, was just going off what Susan had said in the post above.Know him but can't see him here.
He's 'hunky', that's all ya need to know.I don't actually know the (book) character, was just going off what Susan had said in the post above.
I know exactly who you're talking about, but I can 't remember his name or what I was him on! This is the closest I could come (but he's a bit too handsome):There's a British character actor, and I have such a clear picture of him in my head, who would be perfect as CS.

Heck if I know-lol. I was googling for pics of that British guy and this came up. I think he has the big, dark, swarthy, not too handsome but attractive thing. Low forehead, thick dark hair, very manly man...this could be Cormorant.Yeah, this isn't him, but he's cute! Who is he?
