Ilustration To Books Beastly Bones (Jackaby #2)
I've found very little about private detective R. F. Jackaby to be standard in the time I've known him. Working as his assistant tends to call for a somewhat flexible relationship with reality . . .In 1892, New Fiddleham, New England, things are never quite what they seem, especially when Abigail Rook and her eccentric employer, R. F. Jackaby, are called upon to investigate the supernatural. First, members of a particularly vicious species of shape-shifters disguise themselves as a litter of kittens. A day later, their owner is found murdered, with a single mysterious puncture wound to her neck. Then, in nearby Gad's Valley, dinosaur bones from a recent dig go missing, and an unidentifiable beast attacks animals and people, leaving their mangled bodies behind. Policeman Charlie Cane, exiled from New Fiddleham to the valley, calls on Abigail for help, and soon Abigail and Jackaby are on the hunt for a thief, a monster, and a murderer.

Failure is not the opposite of success - its a part of it. And as failures go, this one was really spectacular, wasnt it? I'm glad to see the author developed this story into something more. The first book ended rather nicely and didn't leave many open questions.After I finished this book it actually felt more like an introduction story, an appatizer for the rest of the series.This time the author gave the reader a bit more insights in the backstories of the characters (one character inThis is the book that I was most excited to get at BEA this year! It's the follow-up to Jackaby, one of my favorite reads of 2014. SO. MUCH. FUN. Think Sherlock Holmes meets H. P. Lovecraft. It's Victorian-era supernatural mysteries! In this one Jackaby and Abigail investigate a murder, missing dinosaur bones, and shape-shifting kittens in a small New England town. Lemme say one part again: Shape-shifting kittens. RIGHT???? You don't have to read the first book to enjoy this but I HIGHLY suggest
This is a review for an Advanced Readers Copy.Dear Beastly Bones,Perhaps I was biased when I picked you up. I mean, I loved your first book - Jackaby - so much; I knew there was no way I was going to dislike you. Ive been hungry for more Jackaby and Abigail ever since I finished Book #1, and so it was with eager hands and bated breath that I picked you up. And, Beastly Bones, I was the furthest thing from disappointed.Abigail Rook continues on as the investigative assistant of idiosyncratic

I was lucky enough to be granted an ARC of Beastly Bones from NetGalley and I read Jackaby just a couple of days before I read Beastly Bones and that was a wise decision since the story in this book picks up right where we left Abigail and Jackaby in the last book; A woman with an ailing cat. Well, ailing is probably the wrong word, the cat is slowly turning into a fish. But Abigail and Jackaby have a bigger fish to fry than then the catfish because dinosaur bones from a recent dig has gone
This book was just as funny as the first one. I really love Jackaby. Well, I also love Miss Rook, Jenny and Douglas. Jackaby is like Sherlock but with fantasy and paranormal. Can you image for real? Jenny, the ghost and Douglas the mallard are in the book again, although, they don't have big parts like they did the first time around. But I have a feeling they will in the next book. I mean the book just starts right out of the bat. Jackaby and Miss Rook go over to a Mrs. Beaumont's to see what's
This is the second book in the Jackaby series, and so far, I'm enjoying these. They are fun, light and entertaining. What I like the most are the characters, both the real, the ghostly, and the changed. It is all so creative. I listened to the audio and I especially enjoyed the voice of Abigail and the news reporter. The humor too was well scripted. So 4 stars.
