Devil Bones: A Novel (Temperance Brennan Novels)
Kathy Reichs
Scribner, 2008
She hit it out of the ball park again!
+ It's all right
Kathy Reichs is a genius! I honestly don't know how she does it all but I love her descriptions and the way she can use language to paint a picture. These books are so packed with science I can use them in the classroom to emphasize topics on Forensics as well as other basic science topics.
I ...

Devil May Care
Sebastian Faulks
Doubleday, 2008
Bond...Stirred Not Shaken
Devil May Care was a good read all things considered. It could never be confused with a "real" Ian Fleming book, but I enjoyed it. I say "stirred not shaken" because Faulks tries to stick to Fleming's style, but falls short (there's an absurd tennis match for example). I am glad I found the book at ...

In the Woods
Tana French
Penguin (Non-Classics), 2008
The Perfect October Read
+ A literary thriller
French's debut really is everything it's cracked up to be: literate, taught, and consummately spooky. Her characters are achingly believable, from the police, victim and villains right down to the not-so-innocent bystanders. The central mystery is satisfying as well, though it's less puzzle than ...
