Lincoln Rhyme was awesome main character! I loved how a man who was physically and emotionally shattered led imvestigations and it was so amazing to follow that. Secondary characters were amazing too, I loved the group dynamics overall.

I adored how history of New York was involved and I loved to learn all those little details. Pacing was really good too and everything went forward really smoothly.

I've never seen the show, so I was able to go in blind. While certain things about the investigation felt dated, I can give it a pass since the book was first released in 1998 😂

Overall pretty good and I'll likely give the next book in the series a go! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

EvieBee I remember missing my train stop on the way to work because of this one. 1y

Day 2 of #12BooksOf2022

Lincoln Rhyme is a quadriplegic forensic criminalist. And he is about to be dragged into one of the most dangerous and horrible cases of his long career. He is the only one who can stop the killer, dubbed The Bone Collector.

Loved the criminal procedure in this one.

For years, the tagged book (Lincoln Rhyme #1) sat lingering on the shelf. About a month ago, I finally cracked the cover. I‘m getting closer and closer to the ending, chipping away piece by (forensic) piece, and loving the ride with Rhyme & Sachs. I love all things investigation and forensics and I‘m actually learning stuff as well. My first Jeffery Deaver and I‘m eyeing his backlist for sure!!

And now that I have finished the book I can finally watch the movie. One good thing about libraries being closed is all due dates have been extended otherwise this would be way way overdue. Who knows, maybe I will even start to check out the tv show. 😜🤔

The bone collector. It was better than the movie, so much more detail in the clues and evidence. It counts as shocking twist for #bookishbingo and a book with bone in the title for #ScaryScavengerHunt

The twists and turns in this book were not what I expected at all, the characters and settings are so well described you can close your eyes and picture yourself watching them, seeing exactly what they are doing.
I absolutely love Jeffery Deaver, his writing style just keeps you hooked and makes you think of the book even when you aren't reading it.

Mehso-so

Rhyme is a paraplegic ex-detective toying with the idea of suicide when he is dragged into a serial killer case. He and sidekick Amelia Sachs are interesting characters and this is a pretty well-written thriller. I had a few issues with the motivation of the villain, who is never really given the space to spring into life, and there's a bit too much peering into microscopes for my taste. OK but not great.

wanderinglynn I didn‘t read the book, but I thought the movie adaptation was great. 5y
Minervasbutler @wanderinglynn Maybe one of those times that the film is better? 5y
wanderinglynn Could be. Denzel Washington plays Lincoln Rhyme & I thought he did an amazing job (as he usually does). And I don‘t remember too much peering into microscopes. So knowing Hollywood, all that was cut out for more drama. (edited) 5y

I‘m a big believer in book vs film. I like to see all sides. Currently reading two, this one, #thebonecollector is not unlike #lordoftherings where it has an interesting story but things get lost in too much unnecessary detail, like before that orc battle in the middle of #thetwotowers and #tolkien describes, in excruciating detail how each blade of grass feels about the upcoming battle. It can get annoying at parts but overall very good

This is a great book and a great film - Denzel Washington And Angelina Jolie at their very best. This is the first book in he Lincoln Rhyme Series, yet still to read book 2. I really do need to address this! Too many books too little time!

This book is definitely better than the movie! I rarely re-read books and re-watch movies but I'm willing to take another look at the movie to better remember what was changed. I will pay more attention to the end as the book seemed rushed at the end but I don't believe that is the case with the movie.
