It was just too long. I would really enjoy a condensed version of this book.

If you've never read Jodi Picoult before, which I can't imagine, this is a perfect one to start with.

Ellie Hathaway, an attorney, decides to represent the teen, but must immerse herself into this unique community in order to get to the truth.
