I read this after I saw the movie, and I had already heard the ending of the book before I started reading it, so part of me is wondering why I read the book to begin with. I'm glad I read it even though it took me a good few months to read, I found myself putting this one down again and not picking it up for a while, and not really wanting to go back to it, but one night I couldn't sleep I picked it up and finished it. I think I was struggling with the characters and who they were I just was upset at some, sad with another. I will read another Jodi Picoult book sometime though.
