Check out Kim‘s book recommendation on Book Interrupted‘s Manuscript Monday. https://www.bookinterrupted.com/post/manuscript-monday-nineteen-minutes
pickThis is such a tough topic and so many parts were just so hard to read and so heartbreaking. As per usual with Jodi Picoult, there were some twists and unexpected feelings throughout this book. Not necessarily a happy ending, but an interesting one. This book definitely made me think about a lot and it‘s going to stay with me for a long time.

this book kept me on the edge of my seat and the plot twist is probably one of the best i‘ve read in a jodi picoult novel. this book has you rooting for the bad guy, because he really isn‘t a bad guy. you experience every scene with the characters and the plot is one you hope to never ever experience in your lifetime. such a powerful depiction of something so real in our nation‘s timeline. it emphasizes the heartbreak.
“But true character showed when you could find something to love in a child everyone else hated.”
-Chapter 5, Page 126
“A gun was nothing, really, without a person behind it.”
THIS! we talk about this concept all the time when advocating for gun safety laws. it‘s so important and also so crucial in understanding the foreshadowing of the novel.
