Bone Dry

By: Bette Golden Lamb

Narrated by: Beth Richmond

Imagine. You have cancer. You’ve been blasted and wasted with chemotherapy, along with every other poison the doctors could find to kill malignant cells. Most days you’re more dead than alive. Now there is one last chance for survival. Tomorrow you will be infused with your own, treated bone marrow frozen, stored, and safe in one of California’s most prestigious hospitals. Then comes the note: “We have your marrow.... pay or die.”

Wow!!

Great story, easy reading, has you sitting on the edge of your seat for the total book.

Okay book a little too predictable

This was a okay read although pretty predictable. Would have been nice to have been surprised at some point. Audio is okay although I couldn't stand how high pitched and whiny she played some of the characters and the bad accent of main character.

Just ok.

I was hoping to love it, since I'm looking for a new fiction series to accompany this year's spring cleaning. This didn't quite make it. The characters are a little flat, and the story itself doesn't ever really hook you .

Not bad, not great, it was OK"

What did you like best about Bone Dry? What did you like least?

Like: Gina is from the Bronx.

Dislike:The character of Faye, whining over and over again was excruciatingly painful to endure. I wanted to smack her around too. Instead, I fast forwarded it. Actually, ALL the female characters whined and whined in conversations. Frankie PLEEEEAAASE, Tony PLEEEEAAASE, PLEEEEAAASE Mr. Capello over and over again. As a nurse of 40+ years, I find her nursing interactions with patients and families inappropriate many times. Constantly saying she knew how they felt is a turn off.The entire staff calling "the kid" a brat to his face, unprofessional! Spilling Blood in the lab more than once ???? Yeah, right. Being told to lie to a patient? NEVER

What does Beth Richmond bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Very good despite having to whine over & over (as the characters)

bone dry

a great story and shows what someone will do in the name of love. That was sad that she felt tbe need to degrade herself and put other lives at risk also.
