Jodi out does herself yet again

This was a book that I could not put down for anything, had to stay up all night to finish reading it. On to the next book... :)


Jodi Picoult is amazing!

Vanishing Acts is an excellent story of a father and daughter, wrong and right, ethical or not. Jodi Picoult is an excellent writer! This was my first Jodi Picoult novel and I loved it!

Good but not her best

I love Jodi Picoult's work. Her use of language is exquisite and her attention to detail is amazing. Still, the use of four narrators in this book was troubling for two reasons. Perhaps most importantly, they all spoke with one voice; I often had to go back to figure out who was narrating a particular chapter. Second, all the main characters remained enigmas or, perhaps, simply one or two-dimensional. This book is worth reading but not her best.
A bone to pick -- are there no editors around who can tell the difference between subjective and objective pronouns?

Loved it!!!

In my progression to modern womanhood and in an attempt to rebel against any and all literature with substance I have spent the last few years reading only chick lit.

With that said, this was NOT chick lit and I loved it!!! COuldn't put it down. I was so gripped by the story and pulled in I felt like I was there which is key for me.

I am a new fan!
