Looks good….. early morning start of a new book!
My December pick wasn‘t strong enough to hold off The Appeal. #topread2023 #2023readingbracket

pickFor a book set in 1780 it was quite surprising that some of the analytical tests used in the story were not developed until many years later. Having worked in the chemical industry including some laboratory work was the only thing that kept me interested in this rather dull, slow novel. However, some of the accusations, innuendo and wrong footing in the investigation was quite enthralling. I don't intend to read any other books in this series.
pickThe promotion of medical examiners across America was instituted by a wealthy woman in the early 1900s who bankrolled Harvard to set up classes designed to teach the importance of a systematic and educated way of viewing criminal death. This was incredibly interesting! A bit much on her early years but Ms Lee‘s fascination with forensic education and her drive was inspiring.
pick"The Anatomist's Apprentice" by Tessa Harris follows the story of Dr. Thomas Silkstone, an anatomist who investigates a mysterious death in 18th century England. Along the way, Silkstone must navigate social hierarchies and political intrigue to uncover the truth behind the murder. This book is perfect for fans of historical fiction, murder mysteries, and medical dramas.

I waited forever to get this Audiobook, because I like listening to True Crime (feels more real to ke that way). But now I want an actual copy of the book so I can highlight and annotate my thoughts and feelings.
This was so informative and interesting. I learned so much!
Will definitely be re-reading it once I can get my hands on a copy.
