Seizure by Kathy Reichs Book Review!

Hello!

Seizure is the second book in the Virals series by Kathy Reichs and Brendan Reichs. This book is just as good as the first one.

In this book, the lab where Tory, Ben, Shelton, and Hi's parents' work is in danger of closing, and the Virals are gonna have to move. Tory and her friends try to find a way to stay in Charleston, which turns into a search for pirate treasure.

I still think Tory is an awesome character. I think she's starting to slowly fall for Ben. When they were on his boat she was saying that he was good looking and stuff, and I was like is that foreshadowing? Either way, I ship it!

Ben was awesome in this book! I love his relationship with Tory, Shelton, and Hi. He's protective, and strong, and I just love him.

Shelton and Hi are fantastic! Shelton is still very cautious, and Hi is till very funny. Hi had some of the best lines of the book. 

Chance was interesting. I don't really know what to think about him. Is he good now? Is he still a bad guy? I don't know.

I like Kit a little more then I did before. Whitney, one the other hand, is still annoying. 

And then there's one of the best parts of the entire book, when we meet, drum roll please, Temperance Brennan! Oh my gosh, I love that part so much! to be honest, I've never read the Temperance Brennan books, but I do love the TV show, so to have her in a Virals book is very awesome!

I also love the part when they go hunting for the treasure, and they were in the caves. It was like the Goonies! It was a very keep-you-at-the-edge-of-your-seat kind of feeling. I also love the beginning of the book when Tory, Ben, and Hi were on the beach testing their powers.

This is a great book, I highly recommend it. 

Bye!

Virals by Kathy Reichs Book Review!

Hi!

Today I'm gonna be reviewing Virals, which is the first book in the Virals series by Kathy Reichs, author of the Temperance Brennan books, and is co-written by Brendan Reichs. As always, there are spoilers!

The series is about Tory Brennan, great-niece to forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan, and her best friends, Ben, Shelton, and Hi rescue a wolf-dog named Cooper from a lab and start to develop wolf like symptoms. And Tory, Ben Shelton, and Hi try to solve a forty-year-old cold case murder of a young girl.

Tory is a really awesome character. She's like a mix between Max from Maximum ride and Temperance Brennan. Tory is kind of a tom boy and is a people person, but when she comes across a set of bones then she's like her great-aunt Tempe, which is awesome because I'm a huge fan of the TV show, BONES.

I really love Ben, Shelton, and Hi! I love Tory's relationship with each of them. They are so funny! Hi is the Comic relief, I love him, he's so funny. Shelton is the smart tech geek, he's also kind of a scardy-cat, but I love him all the same. And I reallylove Ben. He's, like, the balance between Shelton and Hi, but, for the most part, he's kind of serious.  

Jason is a good character. I don't ship him with Tory, but he's a nice guy. I don't like Chance, I don't think I liked him once the whole time I read this book. I just didn't feel anything for him. Then when you reach the end and then I decided I didn't like Chance. I don't like Whitney, she's so annoying!

I love the part where they find the bones, like I said before, I watch the show so this was familiar to me, and the guys's reaction when Tory touches the bones is funny. I listened to this on autiobook and this part both very cool and very scary on audiobook. And the ending was so good! 

Also, did I detected a hint of romance between Ben and Tory near the end?  It's when Tory slapped Ben to get him to flare up. Either way I ship Ben and Tory!

That's all.  

Bye.
