I completely agree with you on this count my dear....I'm not a religious person but I believed every single word the woman had written...she truly is magical!

I absolutely adore Jodi Picoult.
One of my favorite stories by her was My Sister's Keeper. I could deeply relate because my sister has also been in very extreme medical conditions, and I know what it feels like to have the pressure put on yourself.
Another Favorite of mine was Change of Heart, merely for it's beautiful representation of holy acts.
Every book I read of hers becomes my new favourite so of course, at the moment Change of Heart is by far the best!
I loved the character of Lucius. Even though he's a murderer the way Picoult writes makes you really fond of the character despite his obvious faults. Father Micahel's character and predicament really leant a truth to the storyline as he made a moral decision that I defy anyone not to struggle with and of course, the will they won't they romance of Maggie and the doctor was captivating! June Nealon has the most heartbreaking choice to make. It truly stirs the "What would you do?" question.
Shay Bourne was truly the most well researched, perfectly formed character. Picoult can just not be criticised for this work!!!!!!
The twist, was fantastic, and although I got it way before it was officially "announced" within the novel I think this was done deliberately. Picoult is such a tremendous writer that if she wanted to hide a secret until the last word she could do it with ease.
I recommend this book, and all of her others.

I've read all of them - and most of them are on my list of favourites.
I didn't like Tenth Circle as much as some of them, though. Or Nineteen Minutes, for that matter - the ending of that one was bad, very bad.
My Sister's Keeper is an ultimate favourite, though, as is Change of Heart. That was an awesome book, a great story, and it had a good ending, too.
I liked The Pact a lot, too, but there was a bit too much in the courtroom, and not enough about the people themselves.
I recommend Plain truth, though, definately - that, My Sister's Keeper and Change of Heart were probably her best ones.
Ooh, I just read 'Keeping Faith' ... you know what, it might just be my new favourite.
Involves a lot of religious symbolism, kinda cutting edge. Stigmata!
I've only read Nineteen Minutes by her, but that book was incredible. I literally could not put it down-- I almost skipped school one day so I could finish it. If anyone hasn't read it, I totally recommend it. It shows great insight into school life, and what goes into school shootings.
Jodi Picoult is an amazing author, enough said.
I don't know, actually. I just didn't. I think it had something to do with the comic strip running through it.
I recommend 'Change of Heart' and 'Nineteen Minutes'. And 'The Pact'.
You know what... I recommend them all!
I've only read My Sister's Keeper and I absolutely loved it. I actually cried at the end, and then I tried to read The Pact, but I didn't really like it as much. I think she writes much better in first-person. I think I'm going to read The Perfect Match or A Change of Heart next.
i only read that one book but i was touched by it so much. I was just something that kept me reading and writing at the same time. The feelings on the page gave me new ideas every second. I fell in love with it. What didnt you like about it?
Really? I've read nearly all her books and I think Tenth Circle is by far the worst. What did you like about it?
Have you read 'Change of Heart?
