Defending Jacob by William Landay

3.0

Ugh. I liked so much of this book in that I didn't really know what Jacob's truth was right up until the end. I liked the back and forth with the trial and seeing inside the father's head. It wasn't clear at all how this would turn out. Unfortunately I hated the ending. I felt at a loss and very perplexed at how the last few chapters played out. When I turned the last page I thought "You've got to be kidding me!". I just found it horribly sad and ultimately unfulfilling.
