Probably my favorite book so far and it has gotten me in the mood to watch season one of BONES!
Fatal Voyage was so good! Well, a lot better than the previous ones. I just feel like things were falling better into place. Plus, the twists and turns were so entertaining! Okay, so in this book you have two murder investigations going on: A plane crash and tons of mysterious murders by a secret club.
Both were intriguing enough, however, I cringed so hard when she was talking about the bodies state and when cannibalism was mentioned. YUCK! Then again, I am back to re-watching season one of Bones and I was so happy. She mentioned Montreal in the first episode and I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I MISSED THIS! My mind is blown and I have a feeling I'm going to like the rest of this series.
Other than all of that, Temperance really needs to get into fighting back or getting better at standing up for herself. Her character in the show can definitely take care of the bad guys all on her own - so I'm just twiddling my thumbs for that to happen now.
Overall, I loved the book and I can't wait to dive into the next audio tomorrow!!

Finally dusted off this book last month after sitting on my shelf for I don't know how long, amongst a bunch of books I have been slowly collecting from op shops over the years. I hadn't read anything by Kathy Reichs before and I didn't realise that it was a part of a series until about halfway through, which probably didn't help with my experience of that book; though I never felt like I was missing anything while reading.
This was a really slow read for me, I had a lot of trouble getting into the story. Which was kind of disappointing. It started out with so much promise and then felt like it kind of dragged in the middle. I can't really express why. But I was determined to find out what happened in the end. Which didn't disappoint. It didn't catch me completely by surprise, but as the pace picked up a little the twists and turns drew me back in and almost made it worth it. I can see why people enjoy her books.

So far, the best of the four I've read. The first three had a predictable pattern, and this one breaks out of the pattern a little bit.
