Book Reviews of Keeping FaithBook Review: This book is amazing, Summary: 5 Stars
This book is one of the best books I have ever read.
It is very thought provoking.
It's a wonderful book, and the characters all seemed very real.
I ended up rooting for Ian and Mariah ^-^
I recomend ALL of her books. Ignore the bad reviews, you'll end up loving the characters in her books and wanting to read more of Jodi Picoult.

Book Review: Thought provoking with awesome characters Summary: 5 Stars
Jodi has quickly become one of my favorite authors. My teenage daughters introduced her books to me last summer and I have been devouring the books as fast as I can get my hands on them ever since. It is generally very hard for me to get into a new book but I have loved every one of them so far and this is one of my favorites. With the exception of the last page of this book, which is rather confusing, this book is full of rich characters and a wonderful story line that will keep you turning the pages wanting to learn more.
Book Review: Well, I didn't hate it... Summary: 3 Stars
...But, there was something about this novel that left me scratching my head. From the very beginning of this story straight through to the not-so-shocking conclusion, I felt like I was hit with one "extraordinary" coincidence after another. This wouldn't have been a bad thing if they'd all manage to tie into one another by the end of the novel. Instead, it felt more like each piece was separate from the underlying message Picoult was trying to get across (whatever that was).
It never felt like anything was fully fleshed out. I don't want to list too many examples because I don't want to fill this review with spoilers. But, the obvious religious angle, the miracles, the mother's history of depression and her later love affair with the teleatheist all played out for me in a giant muddle.
I feel like there was a lot of potential here and I don't 100% regret reading it. However, it certainly left me wishing it packed more of the typical punch of a Jodi Picoult novel.
Book Review: Wonderful and compelling Summary: 5 Stars
I wish I knew how the book ended...I left it at a baseball game when I was beginning the final chapter!
