This one left me a bit disappointed. Picoult truly has a knack for drawing readers into her characters’ lives, but the dialogue in this story felt cheesy in several places, which pulled me out of the experience.
On the bright side, the premise was intriguing, and I found the details about the Amish community fascinating. It sparked some interesting thoughts about individuality versus being part of a tight-knit group, and the way the book tackled the blurry lines between legality and morality was thought-provoking. However, the plot was riddled with inconsistencies that were frustrating, and the ghost references surrounding Hannah seemed silly and unnecessary, detracting from the overall narrative.
Despite these issues, the characters and story were still compelling, even if they were somewhat predictable. If you’re a die-hard Picoult fan, you might find value in the themes explored, but I think there are better books by her that deliver a more polished and engaging experience.
