SynopsisJodi 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., Jodi Picoult, bestselling author of My Sister's Keeper and The Tenth Circle , 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., You've established a historic district in your town! Now what? Preservation Politics picks up where The Politics of Historic Districts leaves off, advising the established HPC on how to maintain momentum in their communities once the initial political campaign to win historic preservation designation has faded and the real work of enforcement begins. Schmickle goes beyond "best practices" to get to the political root of our district problems: a collective preference for putting preservation interests ahead of citizens and the larger public good.  He argues that public service is the key to the long-term vitality of historic districts.  Along the way, he takes on everyone who threatens district operations, from those who shirk responsibility and shred historic resources to those preservationists whose radicalism undermines public support. With wit and wisdom, this book shows that there may be no such thing as happily ever after, but historic preservation is worth the fight!, Jodi Picoult, bestselling author of My Sister's Keeper and The Tenth Circle , pens her most riveting book yet, with a startling and poignant story about the devastating aftermath of a small-town tragedy.

  • Amazing book!

    Jodi Picoult is one of my favorite authors so for me she can do no wrong. This book, among most of her other great books, touches a very difficult topic, school shootings. The story is compelling, and this book is extremely hard to put down! I love how even though this is a work of fiction it hits home to so many similar issues we see on a day to day in the news. definitely recommend this book to any other Jodi Picoult fans out there. If you have never read a book from this author this is definitely the first of many you should try! You will not regret it.
