I've got to give it back in 4 days and I haven't even started yet
Better get reading
Life is a waterfall,
we're one in the river,
and one again after the fall.
We drink from the river,
then we turn around and put up our walls.
When you lose small mind,
you free your life.
When you free your eyes,
eternal prize.

Jodi Picoult is a pretty decent writer. One thing I can say is her books keep you wanting more and more. I have read most of her books in a day or two.
Perfect Match was great
My Sister's keeper was excellent (I liked the movie the ending did disappoint but I guess the director thought movie goers would want a happy and expected ending)
Handle with Care was pretty good. It was simliar to my sisters keeper but different. The ending, well you had to think about it.
Vanishing act-Excellent.
Nineteen minutes-OMG so good
Change of Heart- I liked it. It was a little weird and parts of it were predictable but the ending made up for that completely. The ending was cool.
I am a fan. I will, one day, read all of her books. I could have a Jodi Picoult fest and read all the books I have yet to read in the next couple of weeks but I have found that every author needs to be read in increments or you grow used to their style and bored. I am waiting for House rules to come in at the library. In the meantime I am going to read some other books and I might pick up one or two of her other books.
Sorry for going on a tangent about her but I really do like the way she makes you think. Some of her endings are weird or annoying but in the end they make me think and that is what I love.
