House Rules by Jodi Picoult

4.0

---

Fantastic book. As always, Picoult does her research wonderfully. Loved the characters, particularly Jacob and Theo. Loved the understanding of Aspergers. Got a bit frustrated with the way Aspergers was perceived by other professional characters in the book. I know in England things wouldn’t occur in the same way and imfind it frustrating that the American state it is set in is so out of date. I was giving it 5 stars but the ending was a little disappointing. It deserved an ending longer than 1-2% of the entire book. It was all so rushed with none of the detail found in the rest of the book, and in the last few pages there were no capital letters for most of the characters’ names.
