honeyblood 's review for:
Beastly Bones
by William Ritter
I just really enjoy the Jackaby books because they’re these sweet little books that really don’t ask very much of you. It’s exactly what it says on the tin: Sherlock meets Doctor Who meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. So they’re basically perfect for getting out of a reading slump, which I’ve been in pretty bad the past two weeks.
I think I liked this one slightly less than the first mostly because it focused largely on Abigail and her interests (which mostly in this book amounts to... scenes about digging...) which I think is narratively a good place to drive the series, but personally I just don’t like her very much. She’s got a bad case of the “not like other girls” and I find it super irritating.
Still, I have the other two books in the series and even if this one was a slight miss for me, I’m excited to continue on.
