Cross Bones: A Novel Audiobook

" I thought this might get better, but I struggled to get into this book. I felt there could have been more twists and turns, but fell a bit flat for me. "

" Hmmm, well my feelings about this book are mixed. Yes, it was largely based on archaeological and anthropological facts and recent (within the last 60 years) expeditions and discoveries. Yes, in that regard it was better than the DaVinci Code by Dan Brown. However, the book gave a great buildup with the main storyline, but was a huge let down when it came time to wrap it up and connect all the dots. It's as if she got to the end and decided she was just as tired of writing it as I was of reading it and then just ended it real quick to put the book and everyone else out of there misery. I enjoyed the book because of what the story was developing into, unfortunately I didn't enjoy the book because of how it ended. It was very rushed. Not one of my favorites... "

" Thought it was better than The Da Vinci Code. I really like Temperance her main character. "

" Not sure what happened here. Not the best in the series. Wont stop me from reading the next one! "

" I really like the TV show Bones, and these are the books that show is based on. The subject matter was very interesting and I enjoyed the book. This was very different from the TV show which made it more interesting, because it was like reading something very different where I had no frame of reference clouding my reading. "

" My first Kathy Reichs. Enjoyed the writing style. Some parts were too technical for my personal reading taste. "

" This book was disappointing. I never really got into it. I've read some Kathy Reichs books before and this one wasn't a good one. It goes into Da Vinci Code territory- theories of Jesus' having a family etc..It did take me a while to figure out who was behind everything, but that person ended up being a boring character too. Everything was wrapped up too neatly at the end. Which I don't like. "

" Really one of her best...want to visit the Holy Land now. "

" I enjoy all Kathy Reichs books because I learn about forensic pathology in the process. This one was no different. However, I was a little disappointed in the ending because you were left hanging. "

" I couldnt get into this book from the start. I'm sure it is better as you get further into it, but I didnt get past page 22. "

" My least favourite of the Brennan books - while the Israel stuff was interesting, it was just so far from the normal background of these books and required too much shoehorning to make it all work "

" I liked this book for the most part. The theories were interesting though the book was a bit difficult to follow at times. Could that be cuz I had been up 24 hours? I don't know. It was my first book read by Reichs. I would probably read more. "

" This might be my favorite of her series, it raised a lot of questions and inspired me to do some extra research. "

" I do like a good solving of a murder and one that takes me to the holy land - all the better! "

" ok reading...interesting storyline aka who dunnit but found the CSI like terms a bit hard to follow at times... "

" "Read" this as a book on tape. It wasn't as good as I hoped, but was still intriguing. I probably would have liked it more if the reader was better. "

" I really like this series. Great combination of action and suspense with scholarly anthropological stuff. "

" Not as good as some of the others but still enjoyable. Its full of murder and deception but it ends really suddenly. I enjoyed the historical background and archaeological references. It felt very well researched. "

" Brilliant, exciting, gripping and with great twists in the tale. "

" Awesome, need I say more. "

" Not my favorite in her repertoire. "

" Not as good as I had expected! Hard to get into but finished, although found the author ended the novel quickly and unexpectedly. "

" This author was recommended to me but I should have asked which book to buy this one definitely wasn't to my liking. Reading this novel you get an insight into forensic anthropology and biblical history. The story is slow, complex and I found it boring and over taxed with details. "

" Loved it!! Just the right mixture of history, intrigue, suspense and fiction. Love Kathy Reichs work!! "

" book 8 "

" recommended by Rach - looking forward to starting it :) "

" Good, but not amazing. I LOVE the tv show Bones, so I figured I'd give the book a whirl. I was expecting more science fiction but the book was more heavy on the historical fiction. I'd try another one in the series. "

" I think I expected more from this book and didn't find it, Since the show 'BONES' is so good. "
