  • Yawning n Predictable2

    Christy Leung I had always been a big fans of Jodi Picoult. First started with My Sister's Keeper, and then Change of Heart, . After 6 more novels from her, this book would put an end to my Jodi's collection.

    It goes without saying that Jodi is good at putting spot light on controversial social issues and morality. The dilammas that the characters faced always pop out.

    Like this book, using Asperger's Syndrome as the theme of the sotry is smart. How the characters are shaped is also well done. However, there is no twist in the story, and it is poorly developed. If you have been reading Jodi's novel, you will find this story very predictable. After reading 50pages, it is not difficult to see how the sotry will go.

    The reason why this book ended my Jodi's collection, is that, there is nothing new from Jodi anymore. It is easy to see her story formular:

    Diseased/troubled child + A mom who wont let go + a pole apart silbling/spouse + morally confused lawyer + court setting + a prompt ending.

    With a formular like this, the story itself cant be that bad. However, books after books, it is getting yawning and predictable.

    For those who just started reading Jodi's, choose another one. There are more books from her which are better than this one, like The Pact and Change of Heart.

    And those who have been reading her novels for long, simply skip this one. You wont miss anything. by Christy Leung
