Bones are Forever by Kathy Reichs

Bones are Forever -

I like the tv show Bones, but I think I mostly like it for the characters.  I love Bones and Booth, and Hodgins and Angela, and when Zack was in the show he was my absolute favorite character.  I need to remember when I read Bones books that there are two similarities.  1) the main character is name Temperance Brennan.  2) She's a forensic anthropologist.

 

Dr. Brennan in the books is very different than Brennan in the tv show, and none of the other people in the tv show seem to be in the books.  

 

Anyway, if I'm going to remember all of that, the book isn't half bad.  Brennan was called to investigate an infant that had been abandoned and died.  They found 2 more dead infants in the same apartment, and a fourth in the mother's previous apartment.  This led to them going all over Canada trying to find the woman who would kill her infants.  There were times the book was a little information heavy, it got 3.5 stars instead of 4, because I felt like I was reading a Wikipedia article when Brennan was telling us how people found diamond mines.

 

But the story was riveting.  Just not necessarily the Bones fix I wanted after running out of TV shows.
