I read my first Picoult book this year for my book club – Small Great Things. I enjoyed it but don’t know if I would jump into any of her other books.

Second Glance is an enjoyable read. She’s one of my favorite authors.

Jodi Picoult is my favourite author, not chick lit at all in my opinion. My favourites are house rules, plain truth, tenth circle, small great things and the story teller. Hope you enjoy ?

I find her to have the most boring style. If I had to advise, I’d say choose another author

Her and Nicholas Sparks…I’ve read and enjoyed a book or two and enjoyed them but then things start to get redundant with them both

My Sister’s keeper by Jodi Picoult is the best! ❤

I’d agree, right until the ending which freaking sucks.

1
Safia

But I think the ending was to teach us about the unexpected turns life can take suddenly.

2
Agnieszka

I just sort of hate the mother in it. Like I know she faced some excruciating life choices. But that ending makes me wonder if she’d EVER really loved her other daughter at all. If she pretty much used her like she wanted.

Safia

It’s something to ponder upon. ?

1
Agnieszka

I am sort of equally pissed at the mom in Handle with Care. Because it kind of ends on a similar note only differently.

Safia

Julia? I hope you are not referring to her because I actually kinda liked her.

Agnieszka

No as a mom she was great and I saw how much she loved Willow. Buut I wondered why she buried the check with her. I may sounds really petty buuuuuuuuut. It’s not like that family’s financial trouble was going to disappear all of the sudden because Willow died. And yes the money was for Willow but they should have used it anyway.

Umm are we still talking about My Sister’s Keeper? Because the character that you mention aren’t there in that book!

I’ve only ever read one of hers, called Lone Wolf. I’m generally not into the Chick Lit genre, but a friend gave it to me, so I read it. Kind of predictable, like every book ever in that genre, but not bad.

Second glance. I don’t think her last few ones were as good.

She is a fantastic author – I’ve read a few of hers and always find them incredibly well researched & very thought provoking. My favourite is 19 minutes, absolutely heart breaking but it’s a story that’s stayed with me for many years after reading xxx

I’m reading Plain Truth. I’m enjoying it so far. I have only read one other which was My Sister’s Keeper which was excellent.

I own Second Glance and Sing You Home so it will be one of those. I’m not much of a chick lit person and am afraid it might be depressing. We shall see. 🙂

Her newest book, Small Great Things, is amazing. I like the fact that I can tell she’s done a lot of research when writing all of her books.

The Pact left me an emotional wreck.. Obviously the subject ( suicide) is tragic. It was all I could do to finish it.. I was a mess for about a wk…
