** spoiler alert ** Well, I am a huge fan of JP and have given several of her books 5 stars, but this one, while tackling pertinent and important issues, just didn't ring true to me. Here were a few things that bothered me. LOTS of spoilers here, so beware: 1. Zoe had a baby shower at 28 weeks of pregnancy--way too early for a shower for a person who had suffered miscarriages. And the likelihood of losing the baby during the shower? Severe cramping, heavy bleeding and the need to be rushed to the hospital when she seemed fine minutes earlier? Seemed contrived. 2. The intensity of the relationship between Zoe and Vanessa happened way too quickly. Five months and they were married and knew everything about each other? There were passages detailing the MANY events and activities they experienced together, the way they could read the thoughts of one another and Zoe's quick switch from hetero to homosexuality (with very few doubts) seemed unrealistic for such a short period of time. 3. Zoe's cancer came and went during this five month period, too. Not enough time for her to experience it and recover without residual effects, which seemed brushed aside as soon as the couple decided they wanted a baby. It was barely mentioned after it occurred--only once during the trial, I think. 4. Max's transition from regular guy to intense, self-righteous born again Christian did not ring true. Yes, the accident was a turning point for him in facing up to his alcoholism and the pastor of the church came through for him when he most needed help, but he quickly became an intolerant, prejudiced jerk who believed homosexuals were going to hell? This did not fit in with the way Max was introduced into the story. Also, earlier in the story, he asked for a divorce immediately after he and Zoe lost the baby? He was out of there before Zoe physically recovered and they had a chance to process the loss. I don't think it made sense for him to leave Zoe that quickly. 5. Lucy's leanings toward lesbianism, slowly revealed in her sessions with Zoe, seemed contrived to fit the plot. What are the odds that this situation would fall into Zoe's lap at the exact time she discovered her leanings toward lesbianism? And the revelation about the reason for Lucy's depression and suicide attempts happening right at the climax of the trial? 6. Most of the events that were set up to be surprises were way too predictable. Not the norm for JP. 7. The original songs just weren't good. It was a nice idea to have songs and to weave them through the plot, but the melodies, and even the lyrics, were unpleasant to me, so much so that I ended up fast forwarding them to get back to the narrative. I also found the singer's voice to be irritating. So sorry to feel this way...I really WANTED to like these songs. All that being said, I could not bring myself to give the book less than 3 stars (2.5 is more appropriate) because the issues brought up in the book are definitely worth addressing, including the the timely topic of gay marriage. They are issues that I feel strongly about. The craziness and extremism of the West Basptist Church is very real and should be denounced, as was indicated in the portrayal of these people in the story. There were also some moments in the book that were riveting, especially during the trial. JP has become an expert at capturing the drama of the courtroom and making it interesting to the reader. It was clear that she did her homework--there was evidence of good research, and I learned many new things about the way gay issues have been addressed in legal cases. Overall, JP's heart was in the right place, and I still found myself eager to return to the story to see what would happen. I still have great respect for Jodi Picoult as an author and look forward to her next book.

Lame fantasy about Walt Disney World. Ugh. Stretches the limits of credulity, and then some.

I'm sorta sorry I'm borrowing this one. I think I'd like to read it again at some point. Poignant without getting too sappy, and insightful for all of us, drinkers or not.

I really enjoyec this book. I read it for a study of African American lit and the themes were so interesting. In addition, the ending leaves you wondering what really happened and students will argue over who's guilty of what! It's good!

I read this book for content, and I just had difficulty getting into it and I blame the author. She tries to provide her perspective but clearly lacks experience with writing. I had hoped to learn more about Afghanistan and the book does have its moments by providing some interesting back-stories on the women she meets. However, I just had a difficulty enjoying this book but will admit that the ending is strong.

This is one of the best books I have read that left me with that faraway feeling. Novels that take you away to magical places that don't seem farfetched is always a good thing. I love a book that leaves me wondering what if...
