"This one was a bit of a long read for me but I feel is worth it. A very Christian inspired book with themes and references around the life of the Christian Jesus. A good lesson that there's more to people than what you perceive...and there is more than one path to justice. It had heart-warming moments and a tragic twist that, honestly, made me sick at one point. If you can handle the religious themes and sexual abuse references it's overall a good book. #religion #drama #tearjerker #sexual_abuse "
"Well written, the story will pierce your heart stick with you. I read books to escape the real world so even though the story is done very well I struggle to enjoy reading emotionally traumatic books of stories that could actually happen IRL. If this is your thing, this is your author, and one of her best that I have read."
"I really enjoyed this book. One thing I love about Jodi Picoult's writing is the grey areas of her topic. There is no black and white. In this novel, the reader is able to see how the death penalty touches not only the victims, but the defendant and those around him as well. I also enjoyed the surprise at the ending, not the way I thought it would end, and I loved that."
