I know I said I wanted the Claudette Colvin book to win the Cybil but I’ve changed my mind after reading Written in Bone.
I didn’t mean to even read Written in Bone last night. I carried it over to my bedside table thinking I’d read it after I finished Demon Chick. But, as I set it down, I flipped it open, saw the photos, and decided to read just a bit of the intro… and then I couldn’t put it down.
Great photos. Interesting stories about finding graves of early settlers in Maryland and Virginia – trying to piece together who the people were, how they lived and how they died. Really fascinating stuff. I should have been an archaeologist!
