I ‘found’ Picoult last August in Australia and since then I have read: –
The Pact
Keeping Faith
Plain Truth
My Sister’s Keeper
Vanishing Acts
The Tenth Circle
I will get started on Salem Falls next week. I completely understand the whole getting bored if you read too many one after the other, like misscoffeeaddict mentions, but after a 2 month break I feel ready to get back into it!
