206 Bones Review

Another book in the Temperance Brennan series done. I really do enjoy this series, but I think it's coming to an end here. She just released a book this fall and I am not sure when she's going to stop writing for this series. It's not like I won't have enough mystery/crime books to read.

Synopsis: Temperance Brennan is a forensic anthropologist. She works for both the state of North Carolina and Montreal. In this book she is in Chicago to escort remains of a Chicago resident who was found dead in Montreal. Someone calls the women's father and states that Dr. Brennan made a mistake.

When she returns to Montreal she is faced with a younger co-worker who is walking over everybody to get in the limelight. Brennan is faced with trying to keep her status as an expert in forensic anthropology while trying to solve who is killing old women brutally.

Review: I was not sure how to write this review. The book as most of the series has a lot of  other things going on besides the main case. I liked this book much better than the previous book. The story between Brennan and Ryan flowed much better, there was a reason for him to be in this book. The story line of the case and the drama going on was pretty decent. It was like the other books of the series.

An interesting thing Reichs does in this book that I do not remember her doing in the previous was doing some... not flash backs. She starts the book off a 1/4 of the way towards the end with Brennan in trouble. Then throughout the book she tells about Brennan's attempt to get out of her predicament. It is a thing that either doesn't work in a book or does work. In this one it worked without taking anything away from the story.

On GoodReads I gave the book 4 stars. It was a very decent book, nothing exceptional, but it was a fun read and was up there with the other books in the series.
