Defending Jacob by William Landay

[Ioruach]

I am more than half way through this book and think it is excellent.  Very much recommended.  Has anyone else here read it?

[Ursula]

I read it last summer and you are in for quite a ride!!  One of the best novels of 2012.  Would love to discuss after you finish it.

I, too, read it when it was first released.  Agree with Ursula, that this is definitely a book that can't be discussed until read and then, perhaps via PM.  Otherwise, spoilers would be posted.  Yes, it's quite a ride!

I downloaded the NYT bestseller to my Kindle last summer also.  It reminds me very much of the type of novels Jodi Picoult writes, with imperfect characters doing bad things.  The conclusion is a stunner.
