Review of The Bones of Paris

I read the galleys for several reasons -- to recommend them to my library for purchase as part of my duties as board member and selection consultant (which I did for this title) and for reader's advisory for young adults reading adult titles (which I also did for this title).

I am personally a big fan of Laurie King's writing but it is often difficult to enter a series mid-step, so to speak; it was a pleasure to be able to recommend a stand-alone title that was filled with acute characterization of people and of Paris.
