Monday Mourning, Volume 7: A Tempe Brennan Novel
Monday Mourning, Volume 7: A Tempe Brennan Novel | Kathy Reichs
20 posts | 46 read | 1 reading | 8 to read
The secrets of the dead are in her hands. The bones of three young women are unearthed in the basement of a Montreal pizza parlor, and forensic anthropologist Tempe Brennan has unsolved murder on her mind as she examines the shallowly buried remains. Coming up against a homicide cop who is convinced the dead have been entombed on the site for centuries, Tempe perseveres, even with her own relationship with Detective Andrew Ryan at a delicate turning point. In the lab, the clean, well-perserved bones offer few clues. But when Carbon 14 confirms her hunch that these were recent deaths despite the antique buttons found near the bodies, Tempe's probing must produce answers quickly to stop a killer whose grisly handiwork has seen the light of day.

7th book in the Temperance Brennan series, and it may be my favorite so far.

Book 9 finished for #AwesomeAugust

Mehso-so

I have got to stop reading fiction via audiobook. Very tough to retain details. Here goes nothing. Pizza parlor, bones, murder. Once again Tempe goes off less than half cocked into a dangerous situation. This time she drags a friend into it too. For a person with advanced degrees she sure acts densely.

Book 7 in the Temp series and I really enjoyed this one. Quite a disturbing story towards the end but it had me gripped and god the drama between Temp and Ryan 🙃

This was coasting along as another so-so to ok book in the Tempe Brennan series, but picked up significantly in the second half of the book. Overall this would probably be my favourite in the series as a result. Although the eventual subject material did not make for happy reading. I know it‘s fiction but there really are some sick people around! What happens to those innocent people born as defenceless babies!

Onto my next book in the #MakeMeReadIt Challenge, with Monday Mourning - book 7 in the Tempe Brennan Series. I like these books without really loving them but wouldn‘t take much to move into that category.

EadieB @Andrew65 You‘re making great progress on your reads this month! 6y
Andrew65 @EadieB August is always the month I make best reading progress until last quarter of month when I need to do more school work. 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 How many books did you pack to take with you? 6y
See All 6 Comments
Andrew65 @EadieB Only about 18, but added to by audiobooks, kindle and library ebooks that I can download. Usually buy books from charity shops but not bought any yet. Only got about 8 physical books left! 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 At least there are alternative resources if you finish your physical books. But you are whipping through them! 6y
Andrew65 19 books finished in 17 days and the initial night‘s drive. Although a couple had already been started. Currently have 5 books on the go, that most probably amount to another book finished. Averaging about 430 Pages a day and about 8 hours+ reading a day. Reading heaven! 6y

I just got #bitmoji. I used to use bitstrips and then I got bored but I thought it looked fun. She looks mostly like me--if I was about 30 lbs lighter and about 10 years younger!

#marchintoreading #day9 #alliterativetitles Kathy Reichs is big for alliterative titles, quite a few of her Tempe Brennan books have similar types of titles. Though looking in my shelves, she's not the only one who likes her titles to flow.

Jennick2004 Is this at all related to Bones? Her name is Temperance Brennan... 7y
Lizpixie @Jennick2004 it's based on these books actually. 7y
Jennick2004 Awesome 😍 7y

TheNextBook @BookishFeminist I go back to work on Friday and this is exactly how I feel. 8y
megt Feeling this so much today! 8y
Dorianna Just when I finally found the time to read after a painful mandatory hiatus no thanks to real life things, more real life things happen and stop me from reading once again. 8y
Soubhiville Yep that's definitely not fair. 8y
LeahBergen Yes. Oh, yes. 8y
angrylilasian I definitely feel that way today. And to beautiful weather for reading outside. 😩 8y
BookishFeminist @TheNextBook 😱 oh no I bet! That's the worst when you've been off for a while. 8y
BookishFeminist @megt @Soubhiville @LeahBergen @angrylilasian I suspected I wasn't the only one with a bad case of the Mondays! And to top it off I have a migraine today too. I hope everyone's days went well! The weather's gorgeous and that made it harder for sure. 8y
BookishFeminist @dorianna.garguilo Oh no! I hate it when that happens. Just when you think you've gotten everything under control and can finally relax, then NOPE. It's like someone pulling a practical joke. Hope you can find more time soon! 8y
