This novel had a great premise, and that combined with the cover image led me to hope for a dreamy, thinky, Kazuo Ishiguro kind of novel. Unfortunately, once I got in I realized it was a lot more nitty-gritty family drama than I wanted. Instead of exploring the inner life of the main character, Anna...

*WARNING* If you watched this movie and now you want to read the book you might be disappointed. The ending and some other parts of the book are VERY different from the movie. So if you liked the happy ending in the movie, don't read the book!We all know that humans will do anything to survive, but ...
This book was awful. It was so bad. I have never before contemplated throwing a book away. All my books mean something significant to me as I've bought them all with a particular thought in mind. This book however just dragged on and on and on. I wanted to skip to the last page but restrained myse...

The characters’ came alive because of the way it was written and I didn't find any dragging done just to fill up t...
This is the first book I read by Jodi Picoult. I'd heard a lot about it, and the book didn't disappoint. It has ethical dilemma (as many of her books have) in it, which is quite interesting to think about. The book in that sense definately gives food for thought. It's told from multiple characters (...
Read this a few years back, and I remember something I couldn't stand all throughout. Treating your child as a simple organ donor for your other (obviously more loved) child, with hardly any thought for her emotional well being? NO. Just no. This book made me cry but that doesn't mean it's a good bo...
