Jodi Picoult

I can't decide if I like her or not! See here for a list of books.

So far I've read The Pact, My Sister's Keeper, Salem Falls and Plain Truth. Each of them has been a gripping read, but they all have exactly the same elements - an out of the ordinary questionable crime commited, a client who has a big impact on the lawyer, a love interest for the lawyer, an overbearing parent, each culminates in a big trial where you don't know the truth til the very last minute, and there's quite often a twist right at the end.

So better writing than Dan Brown, but not an awful lot more imagination when it comes to plots! Nevertheless, her ever growing list of titles shall stay on my to read list as backups.
