I literally just finished this book today! It was amazing and I totally recommend it. It is sad though.
I haven't read any of her other books yet but I hear The Pact is good. I think that will be my next one. __________________

That sucks! I don't have it now but I think I either want to buy it soon or find someway to read it. I'll let you know what I think when I start it. Good luck finding it!

I love Jodi's books! I've read My Sister's Keeper, The Pact and Plain. All 3 were tear jerkers - especially the first 2. I recommend them to everyone.

I just finished reading this the other day at work and I have to say, for the final 30 or so pages I had to put it down every few pages just to stop myself from crying. This is by far jodi's best book (that I have read anyway).
I've also read the Pact and i started reading "Vanishing Acts" but got bored with it. The Pact was good and i would recommend that. __________________

I pretty much love all of her books....just randomly pick one and it'll pretty much hold your attention and be good.

I got this book from the library, started to read it, and then my summer just went completely crazy, and I had to finish school reading. And by the time the book was due back to the library, I hadn't finished it yet and it wasn't renewable. So I have to go out and buy it when I get the chance because I really liked what I had read so far.

One of my friend's wrote about this book for an essay she did and told me to read it. I thought it was (by far) Jodi Picoult's best book (to me Perfect Match was a little too far-fetched, as was Salem Falls) but I thought she really caught emotion is this book which is good. The only thing I hate about all her books is that they all have a court case, and it's a little bit samey, but she writes it well.
Basically, the book is her best yet. |

Jodi Picoult is such a phenomenal writer. I can't really get into some of her books, though, like Picture Perfect. I have to be interested in the subject matter, I think.
I loved The Tenth Circle, Vanishing Acts, and Plain Truth. I finished The Pact because I had to know how it ended, but that story was so entirely depressing. My Sister's Keeper is undoubtedly my favorite - hands down. I'm a nursing student, and it actually helped me make up my mind as to what I want to specialize in. (I had been alternating between neonatal and pediatric oncology.) I got this book for Christmas, and I stayed up until almost four o'clock in the morning, just needing to know how it ended.. my mother came downstairs to use the bathroom and found me curled up on the couch, reading and sobbing hysterically. Such a sad book, but so amazing. __________________
