Lone Wolf

Hello, hello, hello,

Next up is Lone Wolf by Jodi Picoult.

Edward Warren, twenty-four, has been living in Thailand for five years, a prodigal son who left his family after an irreparable fight with his father, Luke. But he gets a frantic phone call: His dad lies comatose, gravely injured in the same accident that has also injured his younger sister Cara. With her father’s chances for recovery dwindling, Cara wants to wait for a miracle. But Edward wants to terminate life support and donate his father’s organs. Is he motivated by altruism, or revenge? And to what lengths will his sister go to stop him from making an irrevocable decision?

Jodi Picoult is one of my favorite authors. I would say this wasn't one of my favorites by her. I read this while I was taking an Animal Behavior class and it brought in a lot of information but there was a lot anthropomorphising. Halfway through the book she added another voice. And there were a lot of events that happened that really had very little significance. One thing Picoult did well was show the separation and coming together of family. The big "bomb" that Picoult drops at the end of every book was really not that big of a deal. There were a lot of twists and turns in the book The ending overall was incredible. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars.

Happy reading!
