Topic Reading-Vol.462-7/17/2013

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
JK Rowling revealed as author of The Cuckoo's Calling.
How do you think most people choose books to read, by category, the story or the writer?
The crime novel under an unknown male writer had been sold only 1,500 copies before its real author’s name was revealed that it was her not him who had written the book. But the sales soared both online and offline once Rowling’s name appeared as the author.
Did she want to find out how good she is as a crime story writer?
At least one crime writer had said that the book must have been written by a mature writer while an editor had turned it down before it was published, suggesting not bad but not great.
Enjoy reading and finding why she did so.
