This book is definitely not for someone squeamish, as it goes into lots of detail about a few less-than-pleasing topics. Once you can get past that, "Salvage the Bones" was an ok read, although the changing pace made it difficult to sit down and read sometimes. This was a good book, but definitely not one of my favorites.
