Really a good book, sad story but a page turner and a tear jerker all the same. Well written, again, I love this author! Suprising twist at the end!!

This book was fantastic. If you like other books by Jodi Picoult then you will love Nineteen Minutes. If you haven't read anything by her than this book is as good as any to start with.

A must read for everyone who has learned to read while attending school. Every character was believable. The questions I was left with was not how can this happen- but...why doesn't this happen more often AND what can I do to prevent it?

This is as good as her Pact, Mercy, Plain Speaking, Her Sister's Keeper, and Picture Perfect which I think are masterpieces. I have read all of her books. Her writing is personal, involved--how does she get us, the readers, to crawl inside the persona she is writing about?? I don't know, just that she has artistic skill and a feeling for families, relationships and impossible situations. I come away from each of her books, even the ones in which I was not so involved, a more thoughtful individual about the situation she writes about, and I think a wiser person. That is Great writing, and this is a great novelist.

Another great book by a great author. Once again, Ms. Picoult is able to take a hot topic and show all the sides of the story. Even though you feel strongly about this topic, you'll be surprised when you find yourself feeling sorry for the "bad guy."
