A review by rachdonz
House Rules by Jodi Picoult

3.0

As someone who had no idea the depths of what Asperger Syndrome looks like, it was mind blowing to understand the impact of what a special needs child does to a family dynamic. Speaking from privilege, this is something I have not had to experience — which is why this book was eye opening.

With that being said… THE ENDING?!?! I would’ve given this book 4 stars, but the way the book ended realllllly rubbed me the wrong way. All that build up, and then it just ends. Throughout the novel I said “ASK JACOB FOR THE TRUTH” about 100x. Extremely frustrating end to an enjoyable read.
