Sing You Home

Sing You Home by Jodi Picoult

This was book club's choice last month. I am a big fan of Jodi... but, I have found myself getting tired of the formula of all her books. I still enjoy the controversy and twists that are inevitable, but I do find myself getting better at guessing what happens next. If you've never read Jodi Picoult, I would still suggest starting with My Sister's Keeper (nothing like that horrible movie they made with the same title).

This book is full of current event issues and food for thought. Topics include gay rights, infertility, marriage, complicated and innapropriate relationships, addiction, therapy... lots of emotional topics, pulling at your heartstrings, from different directions.

This month I am supposed to read all three Fifty Shades books... still haven't picked up the first one, even though it's sitting on my bedside table.

    1. I finished it last night! I was stunned that the ending revealed so much peace for all involved. I was sad, though, to not have Lucy's story wrapped up!

    2. I meant Fifty Shades of Grey...I've only read the first one so far. But want to hear how you feel about that book! I can't read Jodi Piccoult anymore...I just cry.
