The novel revolves around Luke Warren, a wolf expert. He even abandoned his wife, children, and life to live in the wilds with wolves for over two years.
Now, though, he's lying in a hospital bed in a coma with severe, irreversible brain damage. His estranged son, Edward, has flown home from Thailand to take charge against the wishes of his seventeen-year-old sister, Cara.
Honestly, I just didn't like the characters all that much. Cara is pigheaded about her father and won't listen to reason. Edward is impulsive but it doesn't ring true.
The wolf sections were interesting and I learned alot about wolves, that's for sure, but, really, the rest was a big disappointment.

I have five or six Jodi Picoult books sitting on my shelves. Never once read her work. Do you recommend anything to start?
I just had to stop by and check your blog out. My favorite hobby is to read! I really like your blog. Check out my blog, I write a little about everything.

I have no desire to read her newer books. I've read all the older ones and loved them. Somewhere along the line they just lost it for me. Sorry this one was a dud for you. It's disappointing when it comes from an author you really like.
I've heard about this book on my-bookclub.com...some book clubs are reading it, I'm not sure if I will.
i totally agree, the only way i managed not to ditch it in the middle was because i would listen to it on the way to work. i was so cery disappointed

"The Ordinary Life of Emily Austin"
Part 1
Authored by R. J. Hunt
volume 1
"The Ordinary Life of Emily Austin" is the story of a reserved middle aged music teacher's journey to find herself after a painful divorce, while she searches for her Self in her spiritual journey. The ordinary and extraordinary events she experiences are woven together with tears, laughter, and spiritual inspiration. To give a comparison, one might think of "Eat Pray Love" with a larger dose of the Divine and a heaping helping of LOL. Many of the events in this story are taken from the authors own experiences.
