Sing You Home by Jodi Picoult

I’ve read just about all of Jodi Picoult’s books an liked them. Well not Songs of the Humpback Whale, but all the others I’ve read.

This one was not what I expected when I started it. It wasn’t as formulaic as I felt it was going to be. It’s the story of a family broken by loss and how a new life is formed and how they each handle it. It’s a story about tolerance for family units that look different than your own. It’s about forgiveness and the danger of using religion as a weapon.

I started and finished this today. I was so drawn in that I only stopped to feed the family and play Battleship with my son.
