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*

so-soI loved The Blackhouse trilogy, so this was shockingly a disappointment. IMO Enzo is a sub par John Rebus… so read Ian Rankin instead.
Some thoughts:
1) Enzo is kind of… skeezy
2) wow, a character with the worst daddy issues I‘ve ever seen…
3) I think everyone was sleeping with everyone?? Or trying… see 1 … and 2.
4) oh yeah… murders happened, which obviously got overshadowed by the annoying stuff above.

Did you know there are 7 body farms in the US? These are acreage that universities own and the archeology students study human decomposition. This knowledge helps forensic anthropologists and crime scene investigators with cases.
Freeman Ranch is one of those body farms and is located in Texas.

I really enjoyed this latest installment in the Temperance Brennan series. Perhaps because I usually listen to them and tend to drift, I felt more focused with this one and it helped keep me tied to the story. It was a good one.
First finish for #hauntedshelf
