I’ve read a lot of Jodi Picoult and usually enjoy them but this one just fell a bit flat. She really tried to ramp up her typical moral dilemma but it didn’t feel as unusual or really stuck in the middle as some - it was either let someone die or let them exist without living. And usually she has big dramatic court cases but again, the case was just a bit meh - if the first one hadn’t got thrown out I think the moral dilemma would have been ramped up and this would have been a way more interesting story. I also felt there were quite a lot of stereotypical gay characteristics attributed to Edward that really weren’t necessary - but they seemed to stop towards the latter stages of the book. Overall, a quick read, well researched information on the wolves, but just a bit “meh”.
