I read the Jack Reacher books but they are pretty much the literary equivalent of "fast food". Quite a skill to get people to read what is pretty much the same book 20 or so times.

No more dreams of mystery chords

Bosch books are still a must read also.

I enjoy the Bosch TV series. Doubt I’ll ever read the books.

The series is pretty close to the books although each season tends to cover two or three of the books. Great theme music too.

Cool.

Agree about the music.

I do think s5 and s6 have been of a lower standard than the first 4 seasons.
