Second Glance by Jodi Picoult

5.0

---

I struggled to get into this, in part because there were so many characters and it was difficult to keep them straight. It took me a few weeks to read the first third, but once I got into this I read the rest in 4 days and I’m glad I persevered with it. Jodi Picoult is my favourite author and I love her books and this book is no exception. The plot was well thought out and I loved the historical aspects of it. People saying they couldn’t believe it in the reviews below annoy me - you’re supposed to suspend disbelief when reading about the supernatural.

Usually I can’t guess what’s coming in Jodi Picoult’s books but this one I guessed who Meredith and Az were part of the way through. And I assumed Lia had killed herself then Spencer had tried to pass it off as a murder. In spite of this the book kept me gripped.
