YAbookfest: Picoult gives a view into the lives of all the characters involved when a teen goes on a shooting rampage in his school. Like House Rules, each chapter's takes a different character's point of view. It's more subtle and complex than House Rules.
fromthecomfychair: It's a story about a boy with Asperger Syndrome that, while no more realistic than Picoult's book, is better written, and less predictable. For me it trumps Mark Haddon's popular book as well.
Story of 18yr old boy with Asperger?s Syndrome arrested for supposedly killing his social skills teacher. A very compelling story. Well written and informative.
I hated this book. I'd give it 1 star except for the fact that I finished it instead of tossing it aside. Really annoying characaters and a TERRIBLE ending. Don't bother unless you love Jodi Picoult. I never really like her books and this one was no different. ( )
It was interesting to read about Asperger's Syndrome; Jodi Picoult must have done a lot of research to be able to write realistically about it. Nevertheless, the plot gets tiring after a while and you wonder where it's going. The ending, as a few reviewers have said, is quite abrupt. After so many pages of suspense, that is how the story ends? Rather anti-climax. ( )

Nobody ever asks Superman if X-ray vision is a drag; if it gets old looking into brick buildings and seeing guys beat their wives or lonely women getting wasted or losers surfing porn sites. Nobody ever asks Spiderman if he gets vertigo. If their superpowers are anything like mine, it's no wonder they're always putting themselves in harm's way. They're probably hoping for a quick death.
Only the liar knows that he's lying.
