A BOOK THAT IS SURE TO STAY WITH ME FOR A REALLY LONG TIME �

This book got under my skin so fast. I have been fascinated by forensic anthropology (FA) for a long time and have attempted to read other books on the subject before finally finding this one. Now I will forever be recommending this to anyone with a similar interest in FA - or anyone slightly interested in true crime.

� What I loved �

Educational: I was instantly taken in by the amazingly methodical structure of the book. Black takes you through the entire human skeleton, starting at the top of the head and all the way down. It was insightful and very educational. I really felt like Black had taken my hand and given me a thorough walk through of all her vast knowledge.

Writing: Even if you known next to nothing about the human skeleton, you will be able to follow this book. Black is genius at taking her specialized and extensive knowledge and making it accessible for outsiders. It was very easy for me to follow along and soak up all her wisdom.

Humorous: Now, the human skeleton might sound like a very dry subject. But Black makes the subject surprisingly fun and humorous. Her own voice shines through and gives sarcastic comments or dry, witty remarks throughout the book. It made the subject appear a lot more accessible and easy to get into.

Stories: Throughout this book Black not only goes through pretty much every bone in the human body. She also tells you relevant, insightful and very interesting stories from her own life and experiences about most of the bones. Black has worked on many cases and is great at finding relevant stories to support her insightful instructions. There are cases from this book, that will remain with me for a long time. And I frequently cite this book and the cases in conversations with friends and family - they might be a bit tired of it by now, but who cares?
