The story is of a Mom of a teenager daughter who accidently kills a fellow teenager while driving. The story revolves around the ramifications and the toll it takes on the family members and the emotions of being a parent. I enjoyed it and was a quick read for me.

Another recommendation from our local librarian to my 4 year old son. Good fun read.

Sweet story of a young boy learning that wonders can be found in one's own backyard.

I am a big fan of Jodi Picoult and this one does not disappoint. The story tells how 19 minutes can forever change a person's life as well as those around them. Love the play of present with foreshadowing.

No it is not great literature but it was a nice break to read over the holiday vacation. I would read her next one.

I could not put this novel down. A book that stays with you after finishing.

I have read several of Karin Slaughter's books in past. They are a bit addicting. I very much enjoyed the book --I do like the protagonist who is in her novels. If you like a good mystery this is a good read. I must say that I was shocked at the ending (did not see it coming) and left me wanting to read her next novel. I will have to wait until later this year when it is released.

Loved learning about the protaganist in through her letters to family and friends. I felt the family dynamics and connected with pieces.

Mo Willems is above par in preschool selections. Funny to read aloud. Likeable monster.

My son loved the cover--of course it's a truck--but not a story he wants to read over and over.
