Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
Jodi Picoult, bestselling author of My Sister's Keeper and Small Great Things pens her most riveting book yet, with a startling and poignant story about the devastating aftermath of a small-town tragedy.
Sterling is an ordinary New Hampshire town where nothing ever happens--until the day its complacency is shattered by a school shooting. Josie Cormier, the daughter of the judge sitting on the case, should be the state's best witness, but she can't remember what happened before her very own eyes--or can she? As the trial progresses, fault lines between the high school and the adult community begin to show--destroying the closest of friendships and families. Nineteen Minutes asks what it means to be different in our society, who has the right to judge someone else, and whether anyone is ever really who they seem to be.

“This was an incredible book that I couldn't put down. It's a deeply emotional story, at times heartbreaking, but it offers a different perspective on a tragic event. The author did an amazing job keeping me engaged from start to finish, and there’s an unexpected twist at the end. As a mom of a high schooler, this book could be tough to read at times.”torikat🌻

“My first Jodi Picoult book and WHEW! It was a doozy. This was an absolute gut punch, and ever so relevant. The characterizations, the sensitivity, the bluntness, the REALITY that this story echoed… This truly obliterated me. I will definitely be reading more of Picoult’s work. 5.0 stars”Janice Overgaard
