3.8 stars. Not my favorite in the series so far, but still good.

I didn't care for this book. I read it because I enjoy Bones, the show based on Dr. Brennan. The book is set in Canada and I got really bored reading the French and trying to find the interpretation.

I love the TV show, so when I found one of the books at the swapmeet, I decided to give it a go. The characters are a little off from the show but it reads like an episode of Bones.

Bones to Ashes was a lot better than the previous book of this series. HOWEVER, I still don't understand why Pete, her ex-husband, is still in the picture? I get that they aren't together and everything.. but him being around is ruining things for her and Ryan. It's also frustrating to read.

Okay, so this book is the tenth installment of the series. Again, I liked this one because we got to see more of Temperance's sister Harry. Not quite sure how to spell her name.. so go with it. We also get to know more about her niece in this book because she's in trouble. Seems like a change of pace because usually it's temperance in trouble. Lots of trouble.

Don't worry, this girl still finds herself in some sticky situations. Luckily, she has detective Ryan to help her out this time around. AGAIN, I'm so happy that they sort of reconnected in this book. That make out sesh was good but I'm hoping to get more from them. I just want to be happy and I want them to be happy.

As for the murders, or I guess the villain of this book, it was okay. Not really something worthy to mention in my eyes.. but in the end, I still enjoyed this audio. I'm hoping the next book, and the ones way after that, will keep me interested.

PS. I'm already on the last episode of season 1 of bones and I'm ecstatic to be back in that world. #teambooth

I still have a tough time trying to keep the Book Brennan separate from the TV Brennan, but I enjoy both of them nevertheless.

This was quite a touching storyline. Very engaging and enjoyable.

My first brush with Temperence Brennan. I've been a fan of Gideon Oliver (the first literary bone detective that I recall) for awhile now, but it's always good to find another.

I've never seen an episode of the tv show on which this character is based (Bones). May read another book in this series if the chance arises.

Found this book in a collection that my recently passed Mom left on her dining room table.

The science is always the second star in these books. Really interesting details. Strong story that pulled all the elements together at the end without dropping a stitch.
