I've read 'Pact' and 'My Sister's Keeper'. They were OK, but I'm not in a hurry to read too much more of her stuff just now. I found them a little monotonous in places and somewhat predictable.

OTOH, have just read Brian Strause's 'Maybe A Miracle', about a girl in a coma who works miracles, and how her brother copes with it.

Have read 'My Sister's Keeper'. Liked the moral theme, but thought the lawyer/courtroom scenes were a bit contrived.

the first one i read was my sisters keeper, and found it thought provocaking.. and an excellent read,keeping faith lost me a bit, but the pact, and the one set in the amish community i found gripping...looking forward to her new one..i think it's out this week....

I too have read several Jodi Picoult novels. I think she's a terrific writer. I like to think of her as "intelligent chick lit". Her books are thought-provoking, easy to read, and also can be very moving. "My Sister's Keeper" had me in tears. My friends also like her.

Also recommend: "The Time Traveller's Wife" (not by Picoult, but very good.)

My daughter has read several of Jodi Picoult's and enjoyed them, I'm currently reading The Pact which is a bit intense. Just read The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets by Eva Rice and Labyrinth by Kate Mosse both very good.
