I was not sure who to feel sympathy for or who to be blame. This was a great book. I felt as if I was one of the characters. Jodi Picoult is a wonderful writer and catches the soul of her characters. BRAVO.Velma TownsOxford, AL
I received this novel in the time expected and am looking forward to reading it along with the other Jodi Picoult novels I have purchased. Her scenes and storylines are delicious. I am intrigued by Jodi's voice and the way she presents her characters. Every one of them becomes a friend or acquaintance. I savor every word and nuance long after I've read the book. To say I am a fan is putting it mildly.I'm so glad my sister introduced me to Jodi and I now recommend her work to everyone.I appreciate this opportunity to acknowledge my enthusiasm for this extremely talented author.Irene
I found this book depressing and the characters in it so self-absorbed that it was hard to have empathy for any of them.
If if was a book, I would have put it down long ago. This is my 4th book by this author. But I only have one or two more parts, so I will finish. I must have liked the first one well enough to read another. The next two - can't remember the names - I couldn't finish because they were written in such a boring style.I downloaded this one to my MP3 player and continue to slog away at it. I'm having trouble concentrating, though, because I really don't care what happens with these people.I guess I just do not care for this author. She comes up with interesting, contemporary plots that could result in very good books in the hands of a skillful author.I doubt I'll ever read another of her books.
Once again Jodi Picoult hit her mark. Her books are always testing the waters of the soul and making me wonder about myself. This one hit close to home with the questions it brings about.how would I react. Jodi only gets better with time and I am always thankful for her work.
