Follow Kathy, Ruth, and Tommy as they attend Hailsham – a pleasant English boarding school where the students are well supported although they are taught nothing of the outside world and are allowed very little contact with it. When they are allowed to leave Hailsham, they finally realize what it is and who they truly are. I can’t put this book into words. It was so good. 

T his memoir describes one of the worst documented cases of child abuse in California history. Dave Pelzer was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother. She would play tortuous games with him that left him almost dead, games that he would learn to play in order to survive. It's disgusting how someone can treat another human being like this, especially their own child.

A three year old girl is the victim of a hit and run. Left in a coma, she has the ability to heal the sick. Each chapter has sections told through the different points of view of the characters. The ending was disappointing (too rushed), but overall this book was really good.

Jack, a pilot, is flying a plane when it explodes. His widow tries to figure out what happened on the plane and uncovers something about her husband of sixteen years she did not know about.

I couldn't put it down. I wanted more, more, more! "The Pact" has something to do between seventeen-year-old Emily Gold and seventeen-year-old Chris Harte. The pair had been best friends their entire lives and later end up as lovers. Picoult takes us through the “now” and “then” to help us understand the story and the characters.
