Gripping read but couldn't stand the main character,
By PJ "bluedogbooks" (Fish Creek, WI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Perfect Match: A Novel (Paperback)
I'm an avid fan of Jodi Picoult but I have to say that this one was my least-liked. The main character, Nina, is a terribly misguided excuse for a mother that certainly doesn't deserve the gifts that she finally receives. The writing and twist of the plot make this a classic Picoult novel. Even though I could not stand Nina, I had a difficult time putting this book down until I had finished it. I admire Jodi Picoult's work even though I did not like the main character of this book.

The only "miss" on a list of winners by this author.,
By music lover "gmw" (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Perfect Match: A Novel (Paperback)
Jodi Picoult is one of my all-time favorite authors, but she misses the mark on this book: her "heroine" isn't heroic. She's a bitchy, over-worked, non-maternal misguided woman, who does what she does for the wrong reasons. I don't like her, I don't like her actions and the only part of the book I can sympathize with is the indictment of the way our criminal justice system prosecutes pedophiles. Skip this one, but buy every single other one that Ms. Picoult has to offer, including the latest, Second Glance. They're all wonderful, thought provoking and filled with truly three-dimensional, likeable, human (warts and all) characters.

Loved this book.,
By SSG "ssg216" (Pt. Pleasant, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Perfect Match: A Novel (Paperback)
Perfect Match is the first book I've read in one sitting in a very long time. I would just like to say to readers that complained about Nina that we are all flawed in various ways, that is what made her an interesting character. I didn't like her either, but that is part of what made the book a page-turner. She obviously was misguided in her actions, even (or I should say especially) as a mother. Perfect Match was the first Jodi Picoult book I ever read, and I can't wait to read all the others.
