Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult

I enjoyed My Sisters Keeper the best, I think. Funny, that was the very first book by her that I read.
I did write to her personally and state my feelings about the amount of profanity in her books. She emailed me back and said that she had to stay in line with her character's personalities and if that type of person used profanity, she had to use it in the book. I don't particularly agree with her line of thinking but at least she did respond. I respect that.

I like JP too. What are your favorites by her?

I haven't read all her books, but so far Second Glance and My Sisters Keeper are my favorites. I didn't like Vanishing Acts. And I couldn't even get into The Tenth Circle. I thought The Pact was so-so. Nineteen Minutes was okay.

I was fortunate to come across a copy of Picoult's new book at a thrift shop for .50 cents. It was typical Picoult but it was a good interpretation of what might go on inside the minds and hearts of those involved in a massacre the likes of Columbine or VT, both the murderer and the victims. I have this really bad habit of coming across an author I like really well and reading EVERYTHING they have ever written. Then, I get tired of the same format and style, lol. I can be so hard to please, lol.
