Handle With Care

Ok, so I just finished Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult (due out April).

This was the first Jodi Picoult book where I really struggled to finish it. I found it very repetitive & much too similar to My Sister's Keeper - just a different disease.

There were family problems, questions of morality, several characters having personal problems, it just seemed to be one big book of problems. & very whiny one at that.

It was written very well & I love the style in which Jodi Picoult writes, but this book honestly did nothing for me. I didn't find myself attached to the characters like the other books & surprisingly was not the slightest bit emotional - when it was called for.

Anyway that's just my verdict, I'm sure many others will enjoy it :)
