I am so happy to be diving back into this series! I also really like these freaking audios - flying through them!
Monday Mourning gives you so much mysterious drama. I loved it. Especially the little romance one between Brennan and Ryan. The only think I didn't like was that Ryan didn't really believe or know about this certain surprise until like maybe a week or two before he told Brennan?!?! Yeah, that kind of pissed me off because he was sort of making her think that he was unfaithful - if ya get my drift.
Other than that, I loved the murder mystery. Listening to these books just makes me want to dive back into re-watching season one of this show. This book is also making me crave pizza like crazy and finding gluten free pizza is a bitch - so thanks book!
Brennan is such a bad ass little detective.. but I feel like she needs to supervised at all times because this girl is ALWAYS in danger. I don't know where Ryan is half the time but he needs to babysit her so she doesn't get hurt or something.
Overall, loved this book and the whole twists and turns it gave me. I still don't like the ending because I think it could've been handled better.. but that's mostly because I'm comparing the shit out of this book/the characters to the show. I can't help it guys :(

Katy Reichs definitely has a talent for spinning a good murder/mystery. Drawing from her real life cases had earned her another hit in my eyes.

This was a good read especially for the genre. I'm giving it an extra star since I haven't read anything else in the series and it didn't matter.

About the Book: Bones of three women with no matching missing persons record. A blurry time-line that doesn’t fit the bodies. Problems at work, problems at home, problems at heart. A truly bumpy start on the path following the Murderous White Rabbit, sociopathic Alice, and their Lost Girls.
My Opinion: This could have been better if author used the references heavier. And if that awful dull romance would stop interfering with otherwise decent story. It was creepy, it was dark, and even a bit scary. Very fitting the October vibes, this little murder mystery, even if it smells a bit old by now.

Another great listen from the Kathy Reichs Temperance Brennan series. Tempe always seems to stumble on to cases that are more than what they first seem (wouldn’t be much of a story if that wasn't the case). With the discovery of bones found in the basement of a pizzeria, Tempe must prove that the bones found are from the last century otherwise the police will chalk this up to an archeological find. But Tempe will not give up on the three young women found in the basement and with science and some sleuthing, Tempe unearths a mystery more chilling than she could have imagined. I’ve really enjoyed listening to all of these novels. I am primarily a romance reader so throwing a mystery in now and then is a great way to break up my normal reading pattern. This does leave me wanting to know more about the relationship that Tempe has with Detective Ryan but the mystery is definitely forefront in this novel. Great read!
