Perfect Match - Jodi Picoult ... firmly it would be madness to struggle. And from then on, it’s such a roller-coaster ride that it’s as much as you can do to put it down before you’ve reached the very last word. After years of dealing with abused children and their families and working her damnedest to bring the perpetrators to justice, assistant district attorney Nina Frost takes a while to recognise the signs of abuse in her only child. When five-year-old Nathanial stops speaking and finally, through sign language, identifies his abuser, Nina takes the law into her own hands. And so begins a fast and furious tale of twists and turns--just when you think you’ve got it covered, you move at right-angles and a new reality emerges.

The characters are all believable and im sure it would make a fantastic read for anyone! Throughout the book you can really empaphise with the strong emotions of the characters and it will have you feeling the same! This ...more

Premium Review Perfect Match - Jodi Picoult: These beasts move among us, and we are none the wiser (2118 words)
by - written on 02/01/08 (Very useful, 175 readings)
Rating:

Perfect Match is one of the best, yet one of the hardest books I have ever read. It is definitely a difficult read due to its subject matter. As a parent, it's somewhat uncomfortable reading the harsh truths the book details. One of the things hardest to read, is something that I guess we all know, but don't want to face up to; the fact that child abusers do not come with a sign announcing the fact. The book describes them as "the neighbour next door, watering his forsythia...the stranger who smiled across the elevator...the kind of man who took a toddler's hand to help him cross the street." Of course, deep down we know this, especially; ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review A mothers love vs the justice system (2420 words)
by - written on 19/12/07 (Very useful, 129 readings)

I am what is known as a major fan of Jodi Picoult's work...or at least most of it...and this one was no disappointment. Jodi Picoult has a way of writing that makes you feel as if you know all of her characters personally, if you saw them in the street you'd recognise them immediately and this book is no exception. It is touching, heartfelt, deeply sad and yet also very funny on occasions...it is a book that shows the bounds to which a mother will go to protect her child...and how the American Justice system works in ways which maybe many would rather not know about.

Since reading My Sister's Keeper I have made a point of trying to get my hands on anything I can by Jodi Picoult. Her books have kept me enthralled each time I have picked one up and this one is no exception. ***The Background*** Jodi Picoult, to date, has written 13 novels beginning with her first, way back in 1992 entitled Songs from the Humpback Whale. From then on she has continued to write best selling novels as well as raising three children and her experiences of love and as a parent come though in this thought provoking and often difficult at times to read book, which was published in 2004. ***The Story*** This story is ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Perfect Novel (1684 words)

I love getting stuck into a good book but it seems that I never have the time nowadays to have a good reading session. However when I booked my recent holiday I knew that at the top of my “to do” list would be a note to remind me to get some decent books to read by the pool. Even though my holiday was only eight days long I optimistically packed six books even though deep down I knew I had little chance of getting through even two of them on the lively holiday we’d booked! The first book I got stuck into while my friends attempted to sleep on the plane was one by Jodi Picoult. She seems to be quite an up and coming author with a particular talent for writing ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Perfect Match - Jodi Picoult: Sensitive subject matter crafted into a gripping novel (861 words)
by - written on 17/12/08 (Very useful, 120 readings)
Rating:

I have read a few of Jodi Picoult's books as I find her style easy to read and her characters realistic. "Perfect Match" was the latest book I read after finding it in a charity shop four days ago. I was so desperate to find out what happens at the end that I have barely been able to put it down! PLOT Jodi Picoult is renowned for writing novels about moral dilemmas that readers can only pray they never have to face. And this book is no exception. Nina Frost is an assistant district attorney who prosecutes people who commit sex crimes. She lives with her husband Caleb and five year old son Nathaniel and has a close relationship with ...  Read the complete review
