A review by roseawall
The Pact by Jodi Picoult

2.0

The subject is a good idea. I couldn't get into it as much as I had with My Sister's Keeper and Nineteen Minutes. I also found the characters a little flat and was left wondering why a little girl didn't tell anyone about The Creep after the toilet incident after complaining about how creepy the guy was. I have never been molested but I do get some kids get really scared about telling someone about something like that. All I could think was why Emily couldn't tell Chris why she was acting the way she was and I don't know why Chris didn't ask her why she wouldn't let him touch her down there in the first place after being portrayed as two people who told each other everything?
