Welcome to Litsy!

I ❤️ Kate Winkler Dawson, so going into this book I knew I would love it! I‘ve had this on my shelf for ages but forgot about it 🙈 I‘m happy I can now add it to my Read shelf 🥰 ft. My cuddle buddy today 🐱#catsoflitsy

Dawson covers the life of Edward Oscar Heinrich, the man responsible for developing many of the techniques and procedures that modern forensic science is built on. From a dead show girl to a murdered wife to a missing priest, Heinrich‘s life was shaped by the cases he worked on and the answers he sought.

Prompt: Scientist

It‘s not that I am a perfectionist, I‘m just determined to get them all done is all. Is this denial or rationalization or both.

I‘m hanging out in New York, New York this week. I‘m enjoying diving into the science behind many of the forensic techniques we accept as standard practice today.

This was an informative book regarding the work and life of Agatha Christie‘s writing. The forensic information used in her books … good read

The biggest challenge for choosing the next non-fiction buddy read with my mom is finding something interesting to both of us, and is available through two different library systems and as both audio (me) and e-book (mom). The upside is that sometimes less selection brings hidden gems! This was one that we enjoyed, and our discussion really enhanced the topic and the reading experience for me. There is always so much to learn! Yay, books! ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

I loved The Blackhouse trilogy, so this was shockingly a disappointment. IMO Enzo is a sub par John Rebus… so read Ian Rankin instead.

Some thoughts:

1) Enzo is kind of… skeezy
2) wow, a character with the worst daddy issues I‘ve ever seen…
3) I think everyone was sleeping with everyone?? Or trying… see 1 … and 2.
4) oh yeah… murders happened, which obviously got overshadowed by the annoying stuff above.

Did you know there are 7 body farms in the US? These are acreage that universities own and the archeology students study human decomposition. This knowledge helps forensic anthropologists and crime scene investigators with cases.

Freeman Ranch is one of those body farms and is located in Texas.
