I am more or less enamoured by Bones, especially the main character. I love how she's so good at her job, but so completely clueless when it comes to the rest of reality, at least that part that covers recent pop-culture. My Dad also watches it, but he's not as enthusiastic as I am: he's read the books, and has much the same reaction as I have to PJ's LotR.

I tried the first book, Déjà Dead. I gave up after Chapter 13 or so. She's a whiner. I don't like the way she writes. Like she's all this information she wants to impart on us, and doesn't know how to do that than in info-dumps. It's irritating.

I'll stick with the series. But at least I tried.

Would this be the series including 'Death du Jour' and 'Crossed Bones'?

The info-dumps are irritating, yes, and the plotlines are so convuluted it's ridiculous...

Dat der bunny.

I see Reichs sometimes in Discovery-true-crime series, and she's ok there. She can't write, though.
