House Rules by Jodie Picoult

Jodie Picoult is my guilty secret. She writes what I would term girly thrillers, with a lot less blood, violence and graphic sex and a lot more relationships and soul searching angst! This one is about a young man with Aspergers who is implicated in a murder but his condition prevents him from communicating what exactly happened. It takes a lot of pages to unravel I can tell you! I spent the best part of a day on the couch racing through it and as a thriller it was fairly absorbing. 3 ½ stars
