The Bone Vault Audiobook

" The novel starts off slowly but I found the story to be very interesting. "

" Interesting, well plotted thriller/mystery. It's set mostly in the Museums of Art and Natural History in New York. There's a few other plot threads skillfully woven through, as well, and just a tiny hint of romance. (I love it when there's just a tiny hint.) "

" Like her others, this book really describes the background environment. This one is the Met and the Museum of Natural History in NYC. "

" Sadly, the background on NYC's museums and the historical aspects to the plot aren't as well-integrated as I'd hoped - they tend to take the form of the exposition dump where a character spends a page and a half explaining something to all of the others. The detail's interesting, but feels too forced. "

" Even better than the last book I read. This one focuses on the behind-the-scenes goings on at the NY Met, Cloister, and Museum of Natural History. Fairstein's credibility is high based on her long career with the NY Distrcitd Attorney's office. "

" Yeah - I like this Alex Cooper character - and will be reading the rest of the series "

" I just finished this book and I really didn't like it. I just thought it was really slow compared to some of her other books and I could not get into it; I only finished it because I wanted to know who the killer was. It didn't seem to have as much action as some of her other books, so it was hard for me to get involved in the story. "

" wasn't thrilled with this one.. "

" Dicovered this author on a business trip. Enjoyed getting to know Alex, Chapman and Mercer. They make such a great team and you learn a little bit of history in the book. "

" I have enjoyed this whole series. Even though I, too, am a prosecutor, I can't get enough of Alex Cooper. "

" absolutely fabulous. My only complaint is that cultures and societies were referred to as primitive, I found that to be condescending. Otherwise, a good page turning mystery. "

" This was the first book I read in this Linda Fairstein series. I fell in love with all the characters. I had to go back and read all the ones that came before it, and every time a new one comes out I devour it. "

" very good story/history of new york "

" Another great mystery from Linda Fairstein. Enjoyed learning about about the museums in New York and their History. "

" Another great read in the "Alexandra Cooper" series. "

" Surprisingly good, with minimal use of strong language, which seems unusual in this genre. The characters are plausible with sufficient depth. Probably unlike my wife I did not spot who dunnit until all was revealed, although I was close. A good holiday read type of book. "

" A mysterious museum story, reminiscent of Preston-Childs' tales of monsters in the depths of the structures, but without the element of horror. A compelling, fast-moving tale. "

" Decent read. LOVED all the museum info and intrigue. The behind the scenes in big museums has always fascinated me. But the motive didnt do it for me "

" Ugh, don't bother. Boring boring and bad. And if you know ANYTHING about the world of museums, you'll just be disgusted at the silliness of it all. "

" Easy to read crime-mystery. I read it quickly and it was easy to lose track of some of the characters, but I am looking forward to reading more in this series. "

" The story was good, the characters too. I don't know why but although I did not mind reading it, I didn't enjoy it much "

" Loved it. Made me want to read the rest of her books "

" very good story/history of new york "

" I love the way Linda Fairstein throws a unique fact in each book. I anxiously await what new piece of information I will learn in each book. "

" Read one, and did not really get into it, so tried this one and felt the same. Just ot my tpe of book. "

" My least favorite Fairstein. Ok but not great. "

" I couldn't put this one down! Brilliant story....kiept me riveted! "

" good-paced mystery. I enjoyed it but the dialogue would irritate me at times. "

" Increases your awareness of museum aquisitition practices. Many activities and people of interest, but the story is all over the place and lacks thrill for me. "

" Listened to the audiobook. I enjoyed this a lot. And I'm apparently listening to them out of order, but oh well. ;) "

" Like her others, this book really describes the background environment. This one is the Met and the Museum of Natural History in NYC. "

" The backstory of these museums is interesting, and so I finished the book. I did like it, though it was slow for the type of book it is. "

" absolutely fabulous. My only complaint is that cultures and societies were referred to as primitive, I found that to be condescending. Otherwise, a good page turning mystery. "
