Welcome Kathleen! Were all big Picoult fans here so you'll see that your in good company. My first Picoult book was actually My Sisters Keeper and i agree with you. I loved the story and i felt my heart break for the two sisters everytime. The ending threw me for a loop, because i wasn't expecting that at all. I would love to see the movie, it just stinks knowing that they(hollywood) changed the ending.
Hi! I am new to the group as well! :) I am currently reading My Sister's Keeper for a book club I am in and LOVE it. I am about halfway through and have a feeling the end is going to shock me!?! I can't wait to finish it and start reading a new book by her! I am so happy I discovered her books! :)
Welcome to you both, MSK is my fave Picoult book too. Defo a shock @ the end, keep tissues handy!!
It is pretty safe to say there is a twist at the end of each of Jodi's books! Welcome to the group Kathleen and Mona.
Welcome you two. :]Oh Mona... the end is just...
Well, you should totally read it and then give us your opinion. :]
Thank you for the welcome! :)I will definitely let you know what I think of the book once I am finished. I hope to finish this weekend! Sounds so good....
Looking forward to reading more of her books. My friend gave me Nineteen Minutes for my birthday so I have that on my to-read list as well.
Oh gosh, Nineteen Minutes is one of my favourites! :DI adore her books... Oh, I must read them again!
^.^
Just found this group on Good Reads & thought I'd come by & say hello. Nineteen Minutes was my first Jodi Picoult book & I have been a fan ever since. I've been reading her new books as they come out & picking up the previous ones to read. Planning on reading My Sister's Keeper before the movie comes out this coming month.
Yeah, I am excited to read more of her books too. I love her style of writing!
Welcome Ramona! :DI did the same but with The Tenth Circle... Yeah, that was the first one I read. :D
I can't wait for the next book.
Ok, I finished My Sister's Keeper! WOW! What an ending! I loved the book. Can't wait to get started on Nineteen Minutes now. What other books should I read? She has so many, I don't know which to choose!?
Ehehe, glad you loved it Mona! :DI think "The Pact" might be a good choice... :)
Thanks Maria. I will definitely have to check that out.
Your are very welcome. :)Enjoy yourself!

Thank you for that description! I know! I think whatever book I pick up by her I will like. Thanks again. Nineteen Minutes is next on my list.
My absolute favorite was My Sister's Keeper. This book was incredible. The characters felt so real. My heart went out to the entire family in this book. The ending was completely stunning and unpredictable which is refreshing in a book!
Picoult has this style of writing that just captures you from the very first page to the last one. She makes you think about how things she depicts in her books can and do happen in real life.
I look forward to many more books by her and many discussions with the group!
