Interesting book. I picked it up because I love the tv show Bones, but these characters are absolutely nothing alike....

Another excellent Temperance Brennan tale by Kathy Reichs... a little heavy-handed on the religious acceptance lectures, but otherwise an engrossing, exciting read.

ok a gripe - why does Andrew Ryan always step in a rescue her at the critical point - can't she rescue him for a change?

i haven't been on the best of terms with goodreads lately.
its current state of chaos is partly my fault, as i've felt really under the weather. i had zero motivation to do even the things i love, and my reading suffered because of it. duh!
but so did my goodreads, because lord knows i haven't updated it in a bit. and the site being, ironically, down every single time i tried to hasn't helped my case.
but i'm here, finally, better late than ever.
and turns out that i read more than i thought i would, all things considered.
“devil bones” is just one of many books i finished during my slump. i've always been fascinated by all things occult, even though i have too much respect for the subject to ever try my hand at it. what i do is merely what from the shadows.
i loved seeing some of it here, learning about niche religions and such. i have to admit that, at times, the case was hard to follow because there were so many names! but i had a good time regardless.

Not one of her best books. Could have used more suspense, but a good quick read.
