Title: Interesting story.
Review: The story opens with a flood of medical speak, and you know at once that this author has done her research. Overall, it's an interesting and engaging read, however the mother "Sara" is written as an absolutely unsympathetic character, and several of the other character's actions and motivations are not easily understood. In particular the opaque relationship between Campbell and Julia relies heavily on confusing flashbacks and encounters that make little sense.Like other readers, I did not like the ending. I did not think that she needed a "deus ex machina" to end her tale, and the epilogue was unsatisfying. Perhaps Picoult felt the need to tie up all the loose ends, but it was just plain implausible.It's worth a read, though, certainly plenty of food for thought.
