Mevsimler: Hoş Geldin Yaz-Charles Ghigna kitap ücretsiz indir pdf

Sebastien Duda sebastienduda — Warning: The Temperence Brennan portrayed in this novel bears extremely little resemblance to the popular television character of the same name. They are both female forensic anthropologists and that is where the similarities end. This "Tempe" is much older, lives and works in Canada, is a mother, a recovering alcoholic and perhaps most strikingly much better at interacting with people and much more informed about popular culture. Also, she's more foolhardy, putting herself in dangerous situations several times in this book that I feel TV Brennan would not be apt to do (however, that does serve to make her a more realistic character than her sensational television counterpart.) Unfortunately, none of the supporting characters who bring so much wit, color, and dynamism to the television series are at all present in the book. As disappointed as I was that these books are not merely a collection of the extended adventures of the familiar and well-loved TV characters, I still managed to enjoy the book. This Temperence is still engaging and informative. I look forward to her developing relationship with Detective Ryan, and her alcoholism and her struggle to continue sobriety interest me as well. I was a little confused, even well into the middle of the book, about who some of the supporting characters were, but it may be just that all the French names threw me for a bit. Also, the French phrases that pepper the text are rarely explained or revealed by context. I found myself consulting my iPhone's translation app frequently in order to fully understand the text. My husband, who studied French in High School was much less bothered by this. Author Kathy Reichs is extremely intelligent. She is conversant in many scientific disciplines, sometimes inspiring surprising and totally non-cliche similes like "interconnecting bits of information drawn to each other like neuropeptides to receptor sites." A lesser author might have used the more common "moth to a flame" but it wouldn't have had nearly the same effect. Also, we are treated to some in-depth explanations of Brennan's processes for identification of bone characteristics and the tests she runs. On the television show, Bones glances at a skeleton and pronounces its gender, race and approximate age almost immediately, which I have always found a little sensational. It's quite interesting to be treated to a thorough explanation of things we are used to seeing take mere seconds on shows such as Bones, as well as CSI, NCIS, etc. In addition, one of the most frustrating thing about television, and even a lot of crime novels is that it takes the characters a matter of days to solve a complex serial murder. That doesn't happen in real life and it didn't happen in this book. This case dragged on for months while the police and Temperence worked on other things. We weren't told much about those other things and didn't need to be. The action picked up a few weeks later, but it was nice that the appropriate amount of time had passed for tests to be run, clues to be found and analyzed and suspects to be surveilled. These are quality crime novels with accurate scientific methods and descriptions, believable pacing, and three dimensional characters, both hero and villain. I recommend Deja Dead for fans of the genre, but would caution fans of Bones.

Raccoon Jin joshraccoon — Ceritanya biasa aja sih. Yang bikin menarik justru dunia atau kisah tentang Fern si peri. Atau lebih tepatnya, cerita tentang asal-usul peri di Irlandia. I was lucky to read the Daughters of Myth series from Harlequin Nocturne first, so I did not confuse when I read this novel. Jelas aja, karena ada beberapa kesamaan tentang peri. Seperti Sidhe, tempat di Irlandia di mana para peri berasal. Ck ck ck... makes me wondering and thinking a lot about this place... Must search the internet and find lots of interesting facts bout this place... Itu cuma satu. Ada beberapa kesamaan juga (meskipun namanya sedikit berbeda) seperti peri cinta... Balik lagi ke cerita novel ini... Yah, Fern si peri mengira dia sayang sekali terhadap Katy -bocah berusia 2 tahun- yang merupakan anak tunggal dari Paul Roland, novelis horor terkenal dari Amrik.

Di pesawat, Fern -entah mengapa- bisa berubah menjadi manusia. Akhirnya Fern pun dipekerjakan sebagai pengasuh Katy. Saat-saat di Amrik, Fern menyadari dirinya bisa berubah menjadi manusia karena tertarik pada ayah Katy. Pada akhirnya, Fern memilih untuk menjadi manusia dan menikah dengan Paul Roland...
