91. Read and Review 100 Books (14/100) House Rules - Jodi Picoult
'Rules, we all live by them. Some people live to break them and there are others who live their lives by these rules. Jacob Hunt is one of those people who lives his life by those rules, primarily because he’s “hard-wired” to think just that way. Jacob has Asperger’s syndrome, a form of Autism that keeps him on the fringes of “normal” society along with those that care most about him. It keeps him from having the meaningful relationships that most of us take for granted and eventually ends him in a situation where he looks guilty enough to kill for one of those relationships'
Kept me entertained during a trip from Houston to Grand Junction, Colorado for work. Although I must admit I kinda figured where the plot was going before Picoult got there herself it was still confronting enough to make me think, what if it was me, what would I do?? Typical Picoult novel, dealing with current medical controversies in a confronting and soul searching way... however I didn't quite feel she hit the mark this time...
