    It was like pulling teeth getting through this one. Love all of her books but I feel like I wasted 14.99 on this one.

    I've read most of Jodi Picoult's books and this was so so. It just didn't seem to connect or really pick up. I thought the story line was great it just literally dragged and I'm sorry but the ending was like "what really" that's it. I felt like it needed to be tied up better at the end. It was almost like the author was alike I'm done!!
  • Beautifully Tragic

    Of all of her novels, this is my favorite. The mix conflicting emotions that both the characters and the reader experience is phenomenal. I read this book almost every week just to have my heart broken again by the tragic story and the beautiful writing.
