I wanted to like this one but I think it was too repetitive on the information end for me. Maybe I've watched too much Forensic Files to find this interesting because it felt like a lot of what I already knew. I also wasn't a huge fan of the way this was organized. It felt a little disjointed to be jumping between informational and narrative chapters. I was also less interested in the author's life than I was in the lives of actual forensic anthropologists, and I wish this had focused a bit more on that like I was anticipating.

Well researched and respectful. As someone who spends a ton of time researching true crime, I found this to be incredibly fascinating. There were a few instants when the science felt a bit confusing, but I think Laurah explained it as best as she could.
