93. Mercy Jodi Picoult



Have to say I am a David Sedaris fan. I think he is funny. I saw him at an author reading and he was great.

I liked Mercy. I have a read a lot Jodi Picoult books and some of them seem formulaic. This one was a little different, the ending left me with a question or too. Definitely a quick read.

And?"

I LOVED IT!!! Why did it take me so long to pick it up and start?!?! I thought it would just be fluffy nothings, but instead it was everything I enjoy in a book. Bad part? It made me cry, and I, like a fool, read the ending in public. I know, I know, you ladies warned me. I can only blame myself...

So Stacy what should I read next??

I don't know! There are very few books that I will put down and not read the rest of...I can't think of them right now because I think there have only been maybe 2 of them. I just don't want to feel like I wasted my money I guess, so I read on hoping the book will redeem itself. It never does.
