CJ Lyons

I fell in love with CJ Lyons when I read Snake Skin and fell deeper in love when I read Blind Faith. This, the third book in the Caitlyn Tierney series grabbed my attention even faster than the first two, which were excellent.. I read the book in less than a day & it would have been quicker but life & work keep getting in the way! Grittier than the Lucy Guardino character, Hollow Bones is an action packed thriller that leaves you wanting more. C.J. Lyons goes back to her medical roots in this book, penning a story that is a must read! Can't wait to read the next Caitlyn Tierney book, OH that's right C.J. Lyons has gone on to other things, leaving perhaps her best character with stories yet to be told. I for one plead for another Caitlyn Tierney book.… (more)

Happy to be done with this book. There was a lot of potential for an interesting and thrilling read. Unfortunately, that's all it had: potential. 
 
I didn't find a single character or scenario in the book remotely genuine. The writing didn't flow well at all and the author's use of strange or nonsensical metaphors and similes was distracting. 
 
Instead of having a book with a kick-ass female protagonist I wanted to see succeed, I read about an FBI agent who didn't seem to be able to figure out basic things on her own or even have the desire to learn about them. The agents and others working the case from other policing agencies never bothered to consult an actual mental health professional but, instead, seemed to rely on Lucy's husband for random bits of insight was just one of the many B.S. things that kept my eyes rolling. And I won't even discuss the ridiculousness of the bad guy or how they figured out it was him. Ugh.
 
If you do decide to give this one a go, I strongly suggest staying away from the audio book. The narrator made a bad book even worse. 
 
Others will disagree with me but I found very little worthwhile in this book. I'm giving it two stars because the idea was good.… (more)
