I was sooo disappointed with the ending, I still can't believe she would RUIN such a great story like that. Ughhh. It just made the whole book seem less... poignant...

I would continue to read it because it is a good story. Just be prepared to do a Chat Icon Chat Icon at the end of it.

Re: I started Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult

Finished it....skipped a few chapters b/c honestly was not a fan at all. The ending was plain dumb and some middle parts were dragging and just not inspiring.

Re: I started Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult

I read one of her books and saw her speak at the book revue in huntington a few weeks ago. She read a few chapters of the new book there. I liked the book I read (my sister's keeper) but I don't know if I want to read more .... I don't like reading about heartbreak. the chapters she read at the book revue were interesting,v very well written and made me want more -- but ... i don't know, there's something about reading stuff that is so heavy and emotional and usually sad .... not that i read only fun and happy stuff ... anyone get what I am saying??

I find this to be the case with almost all of Picoult's books. They are great until the end. I think I will pass on this one.

I just went to the Library and got 19 Minutes and Harvesting the Heart. Any votes on which to read first? They didn't have the new one and I already read My Sister's Keeper.

I totally agree.. I was so annoyed that I spend the time to read 450+ pages and that's the ending I got...

Nineteen Minutes, hands down. This is one of my favorite books.

19 Minutes. IMO, 19 Minutes and My Sister's Keeper are her 2 best books.
