Bones

As a writer, my A to Z challenge is going to be about books, characters, TV shows and movies that have impacted me somehow. Enjoy! Be sure to check out Lee’s blog to find more bloggers taking on this challenge!


Bones

I’d read several of Kathy Reichs' books before I found the TV series. Tempe Brennan is a really great character. She’s brilliant, but she’s so much more. There’s a lot of history in the books that never makes it on screen. In fact, the two versions of the same story are very, very different - even though they have the same bones (sorry, couldn't resist). I like that. The characters and storylines in the books and on TV develop in very different directions, and most of that is because of the format delivering the story. Really makes me think as a writer.


Do you enjoy any books that have been turned into TV shows?
