I like Jodi Picoult. Her writing makes me think of baking. You know how you put single ingredients in and each has a distinctive part to add to the whole? And then you mix it together and bake it and get cake? Well, that's how Jodi Picoult makes a book. She takes separate voices and points of view, explores the moral and ethical ramifications and then mixes them together to make a story. (I'm not hungry, I just like using baking as a metaphor.) Anyway, she does it again in this book about who should get the frozen embryos from a failed marriage. It's a quick read and maybe not her very best, but still enjoyable and worth reading.
