Query: Disappointing

Like alot of other reviewers of this book, I've read everything Jodi Picoult has written. I absolutely loved The Pact, My Sister's Keeper, Keeping Faith, Salem Falls, and Second Glance. I've hated Perfect Match, Picture Perfect, Vanishing Acts, and now this, The Tenth Circle. Okay, maybe hate is too strong a word for this one. The first two thirds were well-written and made sense (for the most part.) The last third was a complete mess. I really wish Jodi would stop the gimmicks, like going to Alaska (why???) and just tell the damn story. By the end I honestly didn't care what happened, I just wanted it to be over. It was too convoluted and over-the-top. It's too bad, but I think quality has been sacrificed for quantity. Maybe it's not possible to write great books if you're cranking them out once a year. I don't know. It's a shame, because some of her books are so great. But this one... if you're going to read it, check it out from the library, don't buy it.
