House Rules by Jodi Picoult

4.0

---

If you want to know in depth what it means to have Aspergers Syndrome and how it affects people who are close to “Aspies”, this is the book for you. Picoult is an expert in research, no matter the subject, and she doesn’t disappoint here. It’s not difficult to figure out who will be killed and how so if you’re looking for a mystery, it isn’t here. The ending leaves a lot to be desired; it’s one of those endings that leaves it up to you to imagine what happens. But I couldn’t put this one down, the anticipation of waiting for the characters to figure things out was brutal.
