matx 's review for:

Beastly Bones by William Ritter
3.0

3.5*

If the first one's plot didn't sink that well this one was completely with?¿?

Thwle writing maintained itself and was entertaining enough.

Storywise... it started up right where the first one ended and with a creep stalker (highly anticipated, but we'll have to wait), we had a little road trip and then we find some corpses and some dinosaur remains?? The thing got silly from that moment, but I still had my suspicions or wishes of some kind of a vampirous creep to find as culprit... I guess I was 50/50 on that one but still the main plot didn't end there and just took a turn to crazytown/completely-unbelievabletown. And yes, I think it was right in the first chapter where they basically tell you what will happen...
If one thing, I found more evolution in the characters and the storyline in this second book than in the first one, so that was a plus.

I was glad to have a bit of a road trip so that we could visit our friend Charlie, but still there wasn't enought of him, poorly poorly treated character with lots of possibilities!!
Although in the other hand Miss Took did surprise in a positive way become even more badass!!
