Sing You Home in Jodi Picoult Books Reading Group.

Mar 17, 2011 Jessi rated it it was amazing · review of another edition

Jodi Picoult uses the same recipe for just about every one of her books: take a controversial issue, take it to court, and read it from different points of view. A lot of authors may not be able to make this work, but it works for Picoult. Sing You Home is no exception.

This also isn't the first Jodi Picoult book that made me cry at the end. The entire book was both beautiful and tragic.

The difference here is that this book came with a soundtrack to go with each chapter. I listened to the first ...more

This is your typical Jodi Picoult book of a controversial issue and a court case ensues. However, I never tire of her stories. This book I enjoyed quite a bit as it didn't have a super sad premise to it. ...more

Awesome book! Jodi Picoult is one of my favorite authors but when I read her last two books I hated the endings. This book reminds me why I like to read Jodi Picoult books.

I loved reading about Zoe's journey and how she found herself! I didn't want to finish it! ...more

Once again Jodi Picoult has managed to knock me over. Loved the book...loved the controversy... A couple of twists and turns... a highly charged moral dilemma

Jodi in true fashion offers up both sides of a controversial topic. THis one was not one of my favorites by her not because of the topic but lack of character development. Gay marriage, fertility, moving on and healing at the forefront of this book.
