I don't follow this series as a series (I'm not keen enough on pathology stories), but after some thought I can tell you what I liked about this one - it was the picture of grownups cooperating on a professional level, internationally, interdepartmentally, interorganizationally, in the name of publi...

I struggled with my rating of this book. I have read all the previous books in this series. I found this book to be at par with the better stories except for one major point. Ms Reichs' books are labeled as suspenseful forensic anthropology mysteries. I agree with that general assessment except ...

Whodunit novel with science. At first when I read the first novel of Reichs and found out that Brennan is quite depicted differently on her novels, I was disappointed. I was like " I want BONES!" But then when I've read this novel I somehow appreciated the difference of Brennan on TV and Brennan on ...

This is my first Temperance after liking the TV series Bones so much, I thought I would like this one.Not really. I don't like it as much as the TV series, although it is not really a bad read.Spoiler alert!The start of the book makes you worries about Temperance, and want to know where she is, or h...

Probably my favorite Tempe Brennan book thus far...It just flowed incredibly smooth and I thought the storyline was the best out of all of them. She is still just a really, really comfortable read for me.

Is it like t...

I always enjoy reading Kathy Reichs. Not because her books are great literature, but because they are a quick and easy read. Maybe it's also because I live in the Montreal area and I get a kick out of recognizing the landmarks and understanding the idioms. I am always amazed by the science and the d...

I'm a long-time fan of Kathy Reich's books, and have read every one of them. For some reason, "206 Bones" feels like Reichs has grown tired of her characters. I enjoyed the book a great deal, but it seemed that the situations of her two main protagonists, Tempe Brennan and Andrew Ryan, are becomin...

I don't know if this is one of my favorites in this series, but it's different. She wrote it kind of choppy, where part of the ending is already known to the reader at the beginning of the book. It doesn't give it away, but this is one of her more obvious novels. Sometimes her books have an out-of-t...
