House Rules
By Jodi Picoult...I became a fan of this author picking up Nineteen Minutes. Many of her books are the type that once you pick them up you cannot put them down. This story is told from different points of view...one of the characters has Asperger's. A town experiences a murder, a mother juggles her life between her son with Asperger's and her son that is normal...and the plot takes off. Now, I should mention that Picoult is not for the person who wants a happy escape from reality. Her books are strong, raw, highly emotional and definitely there should be Kleenex nearby. Also, you don't really know all of the pieces until it is the end. I haven't liked her two most recent books, but this one...LOVED IT!

based on your review i will give it a chance. i am with you on not liking her last 2 books, so i was going to skip this one. looks like you've got me hooked back in.
I was hesitant until I read it was about...then I thought I would give it a go. Not as good as some of her others, but definitely better than her latest 2.
