Any book that places you squarely into the head of a protagonist who is, to say the least, a despicable person and keeps you there, fascinated by what this person will do next, is definitely worth reading. Base Notes is not just about murder and perf ...more

I read this by chance and I'm very glad I did. I wasn't sure what to make of it at first - all those bones! - but I was completely drawn into the story to the end. I also loved the matter-of-fact voice of the narrator, Gideon. A really fun read. ...more
