Book Reviews of Salem Falls

Book Review: This is a riveting book.
Summary: 5 Stars

I have read all of Jodi Picoult's books that I have been able to get hold of and this one did not disappoint me in any way. Generally, I read books over a longish period but this one had me neglecting almost everything else. It is a clever use of the familiar (the Salem Witch Trials of 1692)and the new. Here we have a combination of the occult, teenage angst, sex crimes, a witch hunt (in two senses) and a trial. There is a twist in the tail which I had never, in my wildest imaginings, thought of. Miss Picoult is a mistress of suspense and real interest, obviously supported by conscientious and painstaking research. This book has deprived me of sleep, because I could not put it down, and made be neglect my duties. I heartily recommend it.
