Picture Perfect - Jodi Picoult

Handle with Care - Jodi Picoult

I have been a massive fan of the author Jodi Picoult and her books ever since I read "My Sister s Keeper", many years ago, when it was a Richard and Judy read (although I didn t know that at the time!).

Handle with Care - Jodi Picoult

I ve long been a fan of Jodi Picoult, and have read just about every book which she has written, although I gave up for a short time when I got fed up how similar some of her novels were to others that she had written. I put my reservations aside for this when I couldn t resist the storyline. And to give credit for the most part I was not disappointed, it was expertly written, brilliantly tied together and covered some very difficult issues amazingly well. The lower star rating is because of two issues which I couldn t ignore, and the second of them has ensured my promise to never, ever read Picoult again. The first was the main character being so unlikeable that I wanted ...
