I'm only on chapter 3 and I'm really into it already. Have never read any of her books before. Are they all this good?

Going to watch the film after I've finished it.

I really liked Plain Truth. Hated My Sister's Keeper though!

I liked the book as well. Her books in my opinion are very readable but get a bit samey when you have read a few. I read Change of Heart recently and it was good, but similar to others.
I haven't seen the film, so no idea what it is like.

Agree with magpie, great books for start of the holidays when you want something undemanding, very readable, but do get a bit samey after a while.

I've read a few of hers and agree with the comments already made.
I really enjoyed this book and was one of those that made me think after. I haven't seen the film though.

I agree with what all others have said, I DO really enjoy her books, and they all make me think but they do have many of the same themes runnung through.

Think I liked Change of Heart best, but I've enjoyed them all.
