A review by jordan_elizabeth_rose
A Spark of Light by Jodi Picoult

3.0

For some reason I always gravitate towards books that have heavy or controversial topics and this was no exception while i enjoyed picoults writing and was engaged throughout the story it was a bit difficult to keep up with all the characters in the novel especially since some had similar names (Bex and Beth Joy and Janine etc) and while I understood the purpose of having so many characters I felt that some of their stories were incomplete. Also even as someone who is pro choice I found this book very biased if you really wanted to open the eyes of people that may not agree with your position I don’t think referring to them as antis or portraying them all as super religious zealots is the way to go I felt this book lacked nuance. While it wasn’t a bad read overall it definitely wasn’t one of my favorites
