À propos de cet audio

The best-selling author of My Sister's Keeper and The Tenth Circle, Jodi Picoult pens her most riveting book yet, with a startling and poignant story about the devastating aftermath of a small-town tragedy.

Sterling is an ordinary New Hampshire town where nothing ever happens - until the day its complacency is shattered by an act of violence. Josie Cormier, the teenage daughter of the judge sitting on the case, should be the state's best witness, but she can't remember what happened before her very own eyes - or can she? As the trial progresses, fault lines between the high school and the adult community begin to show, destroying the closest of friendships and families.

It could have been slightly shorter but I listened as an audiobook and found myself wanting to return to hear the end

The author showed the perspectives of numerous characters on a chilling topic and kept me engaged

I’ve only recently discovered Jodi Picoult but I’ve quickly learned that it is difficult to listen to her stories and emerge unchanged. I always learn things from her stories as well and am amazed at the amount of research she typically puts into her books. This book is not an easy listen as it deals with challenging issues that aren’t easily addressed or resolved. At times I found it heartbreaking and I think that is part of the point. Her books make you dig deep and feel things that aren’t always comfortable. I appreciate how the author takes you inside the minds of many people as this world needs more empathy. Overall, this is a compelling novel and I recommend it.

Takes you inside the minds of many…

Jodi Picoult never disappoints to show us all the nuances of controversial subjects. Her characters are well rounded out and believable and the narrator Carol Monda did an excellent performance.

I wasn't sure that I wanted to listen to this story but my pull to Jodi's honest handling of sensitive issues drew me in.

It is as thought provoking as I expected and definitely worth the listen.

Perspective

As usual, Jodi explores difficult topics from several perspectives. Humanizing the players, uncovering their thoughts and motives, and keying in on the thing that drives them. It is not a question of whether or not one agrees with a perspective or not ... it is the invitation to see humans as flawed, as having strengths and issues, as having a little bit of good in the bad and a little bit of bad in the good. And this novel delivers on all of that.

gripping insight

This was an incredible story with gut wrenching emotional relatability.
As a teacher it is an important read and a reminder that we need to go about our day connecting with students on a much deeper level. It is critical we include social-emotional learning within school. Staff need Professional Development Opportunities to understand brain science, mental health, emotions and build empathy.

Deeply emotional

Tough subject… and Jodi coverage of it was exceptionally! It’s not as good as other books she’s written but her but I found her characters and research of this subject an excellent way to get the message across.

Well done

Narrator voicing all voices, the male and youth voices did not come off well.

Good story overall.
