Ok. This doesn't qualify as a children's literature book, but I just finished reading Handle with Care by Jodi Picoult. It's her latest book, and it was so so good. I enjoy reading her books so much because there is so much depth and "realness" to them. The characters are well-developed and the storyline is so intriguing. The surprise ending to Handle with Care was one of the most surprising, but at the same time, a little disturbing. As I got closer to the end, I kept thinking, "How is this going to be a surprise?" because all of Picoult's novels end with a twist. And it was on the cover all along!!
