When Objects Talk by Mrk Friedlander and Terry Phillips

This book is very unique to read. It incorporates both fiction and non-fiction at the same time to keep its readers interested. The story starts out as two detectors trying to solve a crime by looking for the murderer of Ann Marlboro. As the story continues, many science techniques, used by forensic examiners, are introduced. This two detectors go through many laboratories and all the sites that could be related to the crime. Throughout the story, they find many evidences and finally find a man who may have committed the crime. However, until they find more evidences that could confirm that this man is the murderer, the murderer remains mystery. Although I don't enjoy reading any science-related books, I would recommend this book to other students doing their science projects. Unlike other science-related books, "When Objects Talk" explains science techniques that forensic examiners use after every chapter with thorough descriptions. Also, there are pictures and diagrams to help readers to understand the process.

A Mysterious Book

Get ready for goosebumps! Just kidding, read the following reveiw to get a hang of what's going on. This book is mysterious, very mysterious. At every page there's something that just pulls you to the next page. It is very hard to stop reading it because you feel just like the detectives in the story, you're waiting impatiently for a call or something like that. The only difference is that you're waiting to turn to the next page. You wouldn't want to say "no" to getting this book. I have great emotions for this book. You would have to wait a long time for my writing to end if I wrote everything I feel for this book. My favorite part is when they explain about the blood testing. It's really cool how the detectives find out who's guilty. I like every part of this book. If you buy this book, I suggest you read it all at the same time. I found the other reveiw plenty enough helpful. Wishing you a grrrrrrrrr-eat time with this fantastic book! I hope you liked my reveiw and found it helpful!
