1) Hardcover Book Mercy by ISIS Publishing. I have many (most ) of Jodi Picoult books. I loved the first 2-3 I read. 19 Minutes, My Sister´s Keeper and a few others. Mercy was not one of my favorites, nor was Keeping Faith. maybe I am getting tired of her books, but they use to grab me on page one. Both of these books seemed to drag. They also were more predictable than others in her series. It seems like she is researching topics of interest to her and spinning them into books. The discussion of stamata was interesting, but it seemed to occupy too much of the story. Mercy also seemed to drag in spots. I am accustomed to reading her books quickly, hardly waiting to turn the page.

2) Hardcover Book Mercy by ISIS Publishing. This is the fifth Jodi Picoult´s novel I´ve read and probably will be the last one. I almost put it down because it simply got to my nerves. That Cameron Mc Donald was such a selfish, arrogant and weak man and Allie, his wife, such a pushover, that I just could not stand neither one of them. What irritated me most was the fact that after finding out that he was betraying her, Allie punishes Cam, but then forgives him (a deduction based on the notes Cam writes to Mia, which are on the left page at the beginning of each chapter). A good sequel would be one with Allie, leaving this guy for good, leaving town, overcoming her low self esteem and finding true love with a real man, not with the kind of male characters that Jodi Picoult usually creates, which seem to be very handsome and attractive but extremely stupid and airhead(for reference, see Salem Falls´ Jack St. Bride and Second Glance´s Ross Wakeman).¤

4) Hardcover Book Mercy by ISIS Publishing. I thought this would be a really good book. Wrong. The characters are boring. The story bounces all over the place losing the readers interest. It goes no where fast.

Picoult dropped the ball on this book. It was so bad I couldn´t get more than half way through it.¤

5) Hardcover Book Mercy by ISIS Publishing. This book was a total disappointment. There were two story lines that could have easily been separate books but together they did not work. The first being a story about Mercy Killing which is a topic that we too may one day struggle with. The other story line was about a weak man who attempts to save his marriage, when his affair is over and he just wants consistency back in his life.

My first introduction to Jodi Picoult was when I read her book "Nineteen Minutes" I recommended that book to all of my friends and family. She is a gifted writer but Mercy is not one of them.¤
