I must admit I’m kinda hooked on Kathy Reichs right now.  I’ve only read “Death du jour” and “Break no bones”, but I’m actively looking around for the next one.  I have a lot of books I’d like to read, but “Bare Bones”‘s cover looks so good, that I’ll add it to my buy list.

The writing is “Break no bones” (nr 9 in the series) is a little smoother than in “Death du jour ” (nr 2), but it still had traces of the staccato style that I did not warm to immediately.  I have somehow grown a little more used to it, and it is not so strong in this book.  But I like it here.  Perhaps it does keep the pace going, which in both books is pretty fast.  Once again, there is a lot of coincidence in the plot.  Too much.  I find it hard to believe that every single body that a single pathologist (sorry, anthropologist) discovers is connected in some way.

But apart from that, the book is exciting, interesting, sensible, not perfect but highly enjoyable.
