Ive been reading her book, The Lone Wolf forever and its so boring. For those that have read it, does it have a good ending or should I just stop reading and move on to something else? Im more than halfway through the book but if the ending is as bad as the actual book then ill stop wasting my time. I was quite surprised though bec normally I love reading her books.

Never read it but once I start a book, however awful, scary or just not my style it is, I HAVE TO FINISH!

I did not like it at all. It combined lots of Christian characters and dialogue with a vampire story with a fictional Holocaust story. Just the Holocaust fiction part was enough to make me not like it. But then the way it was all switching between the plotlines really made me feel sick.
Why in this world of holocaust deniers would you put the Holocaust and vampires together? I felt she was just doing it to get Jewish readers, that's why she made the main character Jewish. but anyone with a Jewish neshama will probably feel uncomfortable with this book.
And I usually like her books, FTR!

Did anyone read "Sing You Home"? I thought it was a lovely book.
But usually her books are hi or miss. I also loved "Plain Truth".

Iv'e read a bunch of her books. These are what I liked: Change of Heart, 19 minutes, My sisters keeper, Handle with care, and The pact.

Ive read sing you home, but I don't even remember what its about, so I must've not loved it. I saw lone wolf at the library, but it looked boring... first time I said no to a Jodi picoult book.

QUESTION for jodi picoult fans: what other authors do you like? I have a hard time finding books, because the only good authors I know are her and sometimes Nicholas sparks's. I like Jodi picoults book because they have a depth unlike typical romance or thriller type novels. Her books move me.

leahs mom, here are some authors that I think are good (and I dont read danielle steel books bec its mostly romance without much of anything else):

maeve binchy
kristin hannah
joy fielding
barbara delinsky

I forgot what else but im also looking for more authors bec I read most of the books from the authors I liked.
