I picked up this book when I was in the library the other day. I knew the author because I absolutely love her Virals series so I thought this would be a good read. My nan has also read many of her books and found them to be really good so I was really looking forward to reading this. However, I was only a few chapters in when I began to get bored. I know it may appeal to some people, but I found that there was just too much said about historical events which I didn't find added to the story. I also became really confused about Temperance Brennan herself; is she in a relationship, is she not, does she fancy her co-worker and who on Earth is Birdie?? A dog, human, pet? On the other hand, I enjoyed that Reichs gave details about her work in forensic anthropology so you do learn a lot whilst you read.
I haven't finished the book yet and I'm not too sure I want to, so I haven't entirely decided what my opinion on it is, but I will let you know if and when I finish the book. I tried so had to try and like this book and I will give it another go, but I just don't know. I do want to try some of her other books though...
As always, please leave comment suggesting how I could improve my reviews or which books to review next. Next book review coming Saturday. Don't miss it xXx
