If anyone here has read anything by her, what's your favorite book? I really like Perfect Match, but it makes me sad. I also enjoyed Tenth Circle and My Sister's Keeper, of course.

hoorah for Jodi Picoult!

I just bought Perfect Match yesterday actually but haven't started reading it.
My favourites would have to be The Pact and My Sister's Keeper and Keeping Faith... heck, I love them all

I liked The Pact but the ending made me a little upset. But it's still a great book.

There's another one of hers, I can't remember the name, about a boy, I believe his name was Peter, who was bullied alot and decided to bring a gun to school and start shooting the kids. I liked that one ALOT. I want to remember the name of it!!! Have you read that one? I'll google it now.

NINETEEN MINUTES!! such a good book! it's my favorite one of hers, i think.

~Kaytee~ · 22-12-2009, 07:23 AM

Yes I've read that one too.. love it as well :D Have you read her new one, Handle With Care?

imjustkimxo · 22-12-2009, 07:25 AM

I haven't, but I'm going to pick it up tomorrow, maybe. Have you read it? Do you recommend it?

~Kaytee~ · 22-12-2009, 07:32 AM

I really like Jodi Picoult.
My favourites of hers are My Sister's Keeper, The Tenth Circle, Nineteen Minutes and Handle With Care.
She writes so well, and the issues she deals with are really interesting.

I can't pick a favourite. I have all of her books.

one_step_closer · 22-12-2009, 08:10 PM

I can't pick a favourite either. I'm currently reading Plain Truth.

Stellata · 22-12-2009, 08:11 PM

My favourites were Keeping Faith, Change of Heart, and Nineteen Minutes.
I've got Handle With Care to read soon.

Ingenue · 22-12-2009, 08:22 PM

My favourites are Keeping Faith, Plain Truth and Change of heart.
I've pretty much read all of her books though.
I'm getting Handle With Care for Christmas.
I love Jodi Picoult.
=)

Love her! Own almost all of her books! I'm currently rereading Nineteeen Minutes.

Has anyone read Salem Falls? Thats one of those ones where you read the ending and just think 'Wow...did not see that coming!'

I think Picture Perfect is her only book thats has a somewhat happy ending!

I was so excited when they made My Sisters Keeper into a movie...but they left out so much and changed the ending. I would have enjoyed the movie if I hadn't read the book...but being such a fan of Jodi Picoult I hated the movie! Ha!

Handle With Care made me cry :(

Piglet · 22-12-2009, 09:26 PM

I love Jodi Piccoult's books. My favourates are Keeping Faith, The Pact, Plain Truth and Salem Falls. I think my boyfirend's parents have bought me Handle with Care for christmas, can't wait to start reading it.

Starless · 23-12-2009, 12:14 AM

I've read Salem Falls. It was good, but definitely not one of her best in my opinion. I absolutely refuse to see the movie of My Sister's Keeper. The ending was the most important part of that story, and to change it is just wrong.

Music-ality · 23-12-2009, 12:19 AM

I've read My Sister's Keeper, Salem Falls and Handle with Care, and I still think the first one in that list's the best - it just affected me the most when I read it. She writes very powerfully like that.

Tig · 23-12-2009, 12:30 AM

Ooh, it's hard to choose! Though definitely My Sister's Keeper & I think probably The Pact. Going to read Handle With Care soon!
