pickDawson covers the life of Edward Oscar Heinrich, the man responsible for developing many of the techniques and procedures that modern forensic science is built on. From a dead show girl to a murdered wife to a missing priest, Heinrich‘s life was shaped by the cases he worked on and the answers he sought.
panThe snacks were good, but sadly the book not so much .... This was the first Tempe Brennan novel I've read in ages (I used to love them) and it was just really disappointing. The ending was epically unsatisfactory - it felt rushed, like Reichs got fed up writing. 😕

I‘m hanging out in New York, New York this week. I‘m enjoying diving into the science behind many of the forensic techniques we accept as standard practice today.
Thanks for the tag @KadaGul
pickThe biggest challenge for choosing the next non-fiction buddy read with my mom is finding something interesting to both of us, and is available through two different library systems and as both audio (me) and e-book (mom). The upside is that sometimes less selection brings hidden gems! This was one that we enjoyed, and our discussion really enhanced the topic and the reading experience for me. There is always so much to learn! Yay, books! ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
pickEasy read with a good storyline. Tempe gets called to Washington DC to help identify human remains from a house fire. The story has the usual twists and turns of a Kathy Reichs novel and doesn‘t disappoint. Her books are never boring.
pickI love this series and this one was really good! REICHS even had someone binging all the seasons of “Bones”. I love little nods like that.
As the title suggests, these victims have been burned. I enjoyed this one on audio.

pickThe latest in the series finds Tempe in DC, asked to assist with the aftermath of a fire. It‘s a good addition to the series, with a fun wink at Bones. I didn‘t love the audio, though, which I thought was read a bit dry. I will warn potential readers that there is a brief but very frank description of what happens to human bodies in fire, which might be too much for some right now.
pickFirst book finished for #WinterGames2024 though not a festive one but an TBR from last month. Another great read in the series, Tempe is always getting herself in trouble but i love the way her brain finally puts it together. 4*
