Taking a break from the grading to post for the photo challenge. This is my #fictionnonfictionpair - a book about the importance of burial practices to our overall understanding of ancient societies, paired with a mystery series about a biological anthropologist using these skills to solve recent murders! #seasonsreadings2016
