I love Jodi Picoult's ability to make you think in many different directions in her novels. This book was definitely not my favorite, but it was a great read. I liked that this book showed a little bit of the exploitative powers of people. It was hard to read some of the negative comments about homosexuals, being a lesbian myself, but the journey I found most intriguing was Max's.
It would be so strange to find the woman you loved was missing something in her life that you couldn't fill. I loved how he hit a low and picked himself back up. Even better that he found his spirituality. I think it was amazing the way that Picoult showed that you can evolve your thinking simply by thinking of your loved ones as people. Not viewing them only as a "sinner" but as a person you know. Anyway totally worth the time! Learned a lot about the lengths people sometimes have to go through to have children.
