The Book of Two Ways Book Review

The Book of Two Ways by Jodi Picoult delivered an original story line I had never read before.  The main character, Dawn, was once a PH-D candidate for Yale Egyptology program.  Years of loss, love and life pass her by and she finds herself married with a teenage daughter. Dawn has a seemingly fulfilling life until she’s involved in a plane crash, causing her to re-think choices. The story switches from past to present until beautifully coming together. With interesting Egyptian lingo, Picoult fulfills another great book. 


I give The Book of Two Ways  5/5 stars. From the moment I received  this book I simply could not but it down. Interesting, relatable and delivered all of the “good book feels”. I would recommend this book to friends and recently lent it to my father to read. Jodi Picoult has been a favorite author for years, but this is my new favorite.
