Handle With Care


I've started a new book this quarter after finishing "Rebecca"--which by the way took a dramatic turn toward the end, revealing that Rebecca was not drowned, but murdered by her husband Maxim. Anyway, the new book is Jodi Picoult's "Handle With Care".
"Handle With Care" is about the struggles of a family with a daughter diagnosed with OI--osteogenesis imperfecta-- resulting in her having brittle bones that are extremely fragile. I could only imagine the kind of devotion this family gives their daughter with her having this problem. Luckily, the family has some pretty great friends for support. On the bright side, the daughter, Willow, is a perfectly normal girl otherwise, but I predict soon, something will occur that'll challenge this family's faith and unity. I only predict this because Jodi Picoult puts some sort of twist on each one of her stories... therefore, we'll soon be finding out.
