A Room Full of Bones: A Ruth Galloway Investigation 4 | 
This one was recommended by one of my reading friends as I've been looking for new to me suspense/mystery authors. This one totally grabbed me from the start. Love the authors writing style and how she kept my attention for the whole book! I will be looking for the backlist for this one for sure.
pickHorses, snakes, skulls, curses, Australia, repatriation, and, of course, murder, or is it? Ruth is called on to attend the opening of the coffin of an infamous bishop, only to discover the body of the museum curator, dead, beside the coffin. Natural causes is the verdict, but then there‘s another mysterious death, and then DCI Nelson falls ill and goes into a coma. Is it a curse or murder? Read it to find out. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickI‘m cleaning up my reviews! Another fine installment in the Ruth Galloway series. This was a bit unique in that Harry & Ruth weren‘t actually the ones investigating the mystery, but rather Harry‘s team. I especially like Judy, and will be interested to see how she evolves. And of course Cathbad is a terrific character. The next installment is a summer read, but it‘s on my list!

pickThis is book four in the Ruth Galloway series and my least favorite so far. I felt the plot was just not quite up to the previous books. However, I still enjoyed it and I plan to continue reading this series. 4⭐

Started book four in the Ruth Galloway series. I am addicted to this series. Maybe I will get them all read this month. #SeriesRead2021 🧡🎃🖤📖
pickI finished the 4th in the Ruth Galloway series this week and it is such an enjoyable creation. In this book Ruth, forensic archaeologist attends the opening of the coffin of a 16th c Saint at her local museum. On finding a body it sets of a chain of mysteries incl drugs, a horse stable , repatriating indigenous bones, and of course Ruth's personal life including Harry Nelson the grumpy police officer. On to bk 5 soon.Happy Friday reading everyone
so-soThis was my least favourite Ruth Galloway novel so far. I felt like there were too many different things going on in this one. I also felt that even though I think she meant this one to be respectful toward Aboriginal Australians I still thought it came across as "othering" and exotifying. She also mixes gender and sexuality up repeatedly. I still care about these characters and want to read more but this one was not as strong as the others.
pickBook 4 of the Ruth Galloway series. I read this in a day. This was a weird one, filled with aboriginal dreamtime, drug smuggling, and dead saints. Fascinating how the author puts this all together. 4⭐
My goal is to finish these two library books today.
Look at the gorgeous ring @WanderingBookaneer gave me for Christmas! It‘s a sparkly Swarovski crystal owl ring! 💜💜💜
Early bird dinner. When in Florida... 🤷🏻♀️😜
A stop for lunch at the Sonic drive-in, before heading to Target for cookie-baking stuff 🤓
pickUnexpectedly different but Ruth doesn't seem to be aware of issues I would expect an archaeologist to know about. Hovering between pick and so-so
Love mysteries with strong female protagonists 👍🏼
pickBook 4 in the Ruth Galloway series is perhaps my favorite one yet. There is something very comforting about this series especially on a gray, rainy day. Elly Griffiths is really hitting her stride with the characters‘ progression. Looking forward to the next one. 4 ⭐️.
pickI enjoy this series so much, and this fourth installment was no exception. There are several threads to this mystery, and it took me quite a while to see how they could possibly be all tied up. There is also some thought provoking discussion of aboriginal artifacts and respect for human remains. Definitely worthwhile. @ValerieAndBooks , I‘m ready to start our #buddyread if you are!
pickAnother great installment to this series! This is the 4th book in the Ruth Galloway series and it was just as great. A lot of magical/curse talk in this one though regarding ancient artifacts. 4🌟!
It‘s going to be a crazy busy weekend, so it calls for some comfort food-grilled ham and cheese-and the next book in one of my favorite series. @ValerieAndBooks once I finish this, shall we do our buddy read?
The cutest little baby bum, chocolate and a good book, makes for a great weekend in Cape Breton. Miss Harper had to come visit her Poppa
pickAnother good read by Elly Griffiths. I am still enjoying this series. Some added drama in this one too.
Ooh this looks like fun. Didn't manage a lot of the autumn ones so hoping for better luck with this one.

pickI am loving this fun series! Ruth Galloway has to be one of my favorite lead characters in a book. 🌟🌟🌟🌟4/5🌟 #litsypartyofone
Ooh a Halloween murder. I'm really enjoying this series. Loving the fact that they're set where I live. Always get a little excited when a place I know comes up.
I always want a spot of tea when I'm reading a good British mystery! A bit of cranberry orange muffin from the Fresh Market bakery never hurts either🤓
pickFirst book done! This is the fourth in Elly Griffiths Ruth Galloway series and although this one had a lot going on and a couple of times I wanted to shake the main character and tell her to grow up, I'm giving it a pick because I definitely want to read the next in the series.

Well I wasn't going to start until I got a good night sleep but thunder and lightning woke me up so I guess I will get some reading time in before I fall back asleep! Starting with comfort reading for the #readathon #24in48.
pickThis is my first book finished in 2017, though I started it in December. I love this series and am really having to make myself not jump straight into the next one. I've read the first four in pretty quick succession! The mysteries are always a little different from a typical story, and there's a historical angle because Ruth is a forensic archeologist. I'm also kept interested by the ongoing personal storyline that threads through the series.
I so enjoy this series. ❤📚☠
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This series just keeps getting better 👍🏻👏🏻📚😁
