I just got a widget for Jodi Picoult's newest
. It's not as grave and serious as like all of her previous books. lol. It's a historical about the woman who maybe penned Shakespeare's works. I'm a big Picoult fan but I'm not really sure about this one! lol. It publishes August 20 if anyone wants to buddy read end of July or early August.
