I just absolutely love Tempy Brennan as a protagonist. I really feel connected to her quirky, smarty-pants personality as well as her drive and passion for doing the right thing. The plot and antagonist in this third book was unique, however we are only 3 books into the series and I’m starting to worry that Brennan is going to run out of friends and family that she can or cannot “save”. Although plot lines and villains in the first 3/4 of each book have been pretty unique thus far I’m a little disappointed in how predictable and similar the final 1/4 of all 3 of these have been. I’m hopeful that Reichs will leave the pattern behind for book four but we shall see. Also, I’m stating this now, if anything ever happens to Birdie I will probably not be able to continue the series. He is hands down the best character of all.
