Book Reviews of Perfect Match : A Novel
Book Review: I'm glad I stuck with Picoult (possible SPOILER)
Summary: 4 Stars
After reading The Tenth Circle I felt a little leery of reading another novel by Jodi Picoult. I loved The Pact so I thought I would give her one more try. I'm glad I did. I really liked reading this one! It was raw, intense and suspenseful.
It's about a little boy who is molested and his mother kills the guy who did it. It's something every parent who has to live this horrible nightmare would want to do and Nina was brave enough to follow through with it. Even though there were some moments where I thought "Yeah right. That would never happen" I still really overall liked this book. Picoult wrote this novel so well that I felt like I was in it. I wanted to beat the molester senseless myself.
One thing I didn't like was how pathetic Patrick was and how Caleb put up with this guy, who obviously has a thing for his wife. I kept thinking "Patrick needs to grow up and move on." He seemed to high schoolish to me. Another thing was how grown up Nathaniel's thinking was. I know he was forced to grow up but some of his thoughts and actions didn't seem typical of a 5 year old.
I love books that keep you turning the pages and this one definitely did that. I would lay in bed at night reading and not even realize I had been reading for 2 hours! The book was predictable but it didn't make me want to stop reading it. I normally don't like books that are predictable but this one would have been all wrong if it wasn't.
