Wish You Were Here by Jodi Picoult

I love the way Jodi Picoult writes. It has been a while since I’ve read a book from her, and this one was on my list for quite a while.

I was kinda disappointed in this one. I had a lot great expectations for this book, and it just didn’t live up to it. I recognize the topic of COVID-19 and the pandemic is a tough one to touch on, and I think Jodi did it with grace, but maybe my issues are because of the topic in general and the stigma around it.

I appreciated Diana’s growth throughout the book and her realization of what she wanted out of life through her bout of COVID-19 and her alternate reality. I also loved the complexity and finality of her relationship with her mother.

This one ended up being an average 3 ⭐️. Hoping for better things out of my next Jodi Picoult novel.
