Warning! Maybe some spoilers to those who haven't read it!!


Sage is a bread-baker, lost her parents, is having an affair with a married man. Sage becomes friends with a former Nazi guard(Josef) through a grieve support group. He asks her to help him die because he lost his wife plus doesn't feel like he deserves to live after doing all the horrible things he did. He recounts a lot of what he did and what it was like for him to slaughter the Jews. Sage's grandmother is a Holocaust survivor who may very well have been in his camp. That's pretty much where I'm at now.

I have all of Picoult's books except Between The Lines. I find her an exceptional author. There always seems to be a twist, lots of controversy, and you find yourself asking questions such as 'what would I do in that situation?' Even subjects that you're sure you feel a certain way about, she'll have you thinking a lot about the other side too.

I'd be hard-pressed to pick a favorite of hers. Sing You Home is right up there though. But Storyteller might beat it.
