The Bone Code

Maybe because this reminded me a bit of Bear Brook or just because the story wasn't so far fetched, but I really liked this one when I've been kind of lukewarm about the last few.

3 stars I need to stop buying these books just because I used to love them so much. Made me want to rewatch Bones though!

The latest installment in the Temperance Brennan series, The Bone Code involves a blast from the past as a new case Tempe catches in North Carolina brings back memories of an unsolved murder she and Ryan worked in Montreal 15 years earlier. She ping pongs between the U.S. and Canada as she works to discover how (or if) the two cases are indeed connected.

I always enjoy a new Bones book (although I have to say, I hardly associate these books with the TV show because they are so different)! I thought the secondary mystery/investigation in this story was unnecessary and it somewhat distracted from the main plot, but overall it was a good read. There's not much character development, but perhaps that's not too surprising for the 20th book in a series. I'm still looking forward to more!

Brilliant read. This may be the 20th book in the Temperance Brennan series, but the series is far from becoming tired or boring. This, in my humble opinion, is the best so far.
