The Bones of You by Debbie Howells

3.0

This book was okay. I figured out fairly soon who had killed Rosie, but kept reading to find out how and why. The one thing I couldn't figure out about this novel is why was Kate even involved. Kate is the narrator of the story and only knew Rosie and her family in a superficial way. They were acquaintances, not friends. Yet Kate is the main character who becomes very involved in the whole situation. There were other things that made me shake my head, small inconsistencies and other characters who appeared and yet really had nothing to do with anything, like Laura. I did like that the author kind of told the background to the story through Rosie, who appears in the book like a ghost and reveals bits and pieces of her past. Not a bad book, but not great either.
