Picoult always chooses interesting subject matter. I liked this, and think for groups it elicits many talking points. However, Picoult's actual writing is not impressive.

I liked this book, but I think mostly because it addresses a potential real-life situation. It is thought-provoking and makes one think "What would I do if in that situation"? Jodi Picoult does a good job of reflecting each person's perspective and it kept my attention throughout.
