I was a little disappointed in this book. I mean, I always find Jodi Picoult's books somewhat dissatisfying, mostly because they're not so big with the answers. This one I found disappointing because there were too many answers. There were good guys and bad guys, a right side and a wrong one. It...

This is a good book in true Jodi Picoult style. It's good and definitely politically charged, like so many of her books. I'm sure this is a book that some will despise, just because of its subject matter. I must say though, it's a sad state of affairs when this is the sort of issue that draws fir...

I don't know how I feel about being preached at, even when I agree with the preacher.This review is going to be raw and my most honest review on Goodreads to date. This is going to be long and tedious and I will completely understand if it's a TL;DR type deal. No worries. But I feel this must be ...

Same-sex marriage/definition of family was the main iss...

For starters, if reading about same-sex relationships is an affront to you, this book is not for you. To me, this is a story of love between two people and circumstances that didn't go according to plan, and how the different parties sought to unravel it all. As always, Jodi Picoult tackles difficul...

I have been a big fan of Jodi Picoult for years. Her books tend to vary; some are very formulaic, uninteresting topics (Salem Falls, Mercy) while some really grip you and cause you hours of pondering even after it is finished (Handle With Care, Nineteen Minutes). This book is more of the standard f...

Jodi Picoult is a master at taking heart wrenching real life issues and then wrapping fictional, but emotional, stories around them. For this book she decided that words alone were insufficient to convey all the emotion she wanted the book to communicate. So she's included an audio CD within each ...

I'm a fan of Jodi Picoult's work and this doesn't disappoint. Modern assisted reproductive technologies have given rise to new questions of ethics, as this book explores. What happens when a couple divorces..who has a right to the frozen embryos and what if they can't agree? Add some religion and a...
