book review - Jodi Picoult "Sing You Home"

Hello everyone,

Yes I've been reading again. Bet your wondering how I ever get anything done... I don't know either. Well the book I've had my nose stuck in, is another Jodi Picoult novel, "Sing You Home".

The Blurb reads: 

After Zoe Baxter loses her baby, the only way she can 

find of coping is to try again. But her husband Max 

disagrees - more than that, he wants a divorce. When 

they separate, there is no mention of the unborn children 

they created together, still waiting at the clinic. 

Then Zoe falls in love again, out of the blue, and finds 

herself with an unexpected second chance to have a family.

But Max has found a new life too - one with no place in 

it for people like Zoe. And he will stand up in court to say 

that her new choice of partner makes her an unfit mother.

Out of all of Jodi Picoult's novels I've read so far, this is the most powerful, asking plenty of questions into people personal lives. Asking what they are doing behind closed doors, who they are in love with, what they believe, means they should or should not have a family. Questions of sexuality vs believes of faith. In life is see it as each to your own, people should be able to believe in what they like, as long as they don't force or affect other people. "Sing You Home" asks many questions, but is also unique as a sound track has been created which you can download and listen to the listed track for each chapter.
Over all another gripping story and a brilliant read from Jodi Picoult, with many questions you might ask yourself about the story. So many emotions from all the characters included. Perfect, up to date, for the world we live in today.


Love Lolly
