Another fascinating, well researched book by Jodi Picoult. Several issues are dealt with in the book including gay rights & the conception of babies. The ending, although predictable, was a lovely end to a terrific story.
WOW what a book.... she is such amazing writer you never know how the story will turn out......I couldnt put it down.
Jodi does it again!!
Love Jodi Picoult... but this was not my favorite by a long shot... kinda boring.. nothing special...
