Well I am almost done everyone of JOdi Picoults books so here is my next delema. What author out there writes like she does and will draw me in like her. Would love to hear everyones suggestions I have 3 books left of hers to read of which I am reading now and it only takes me about 2 days to go from front to back so come on ladies spill your guts and tell me what authors I need to be looking into.

You could try going to Fantastic Fiction and typing in Jodi Picoult's name,it will bring up a list of all her books-then at the very bottom of the page it will list authors that others have looked at, i do believe most of the authors on the list are simular to the original author you have searched for. I can only think of Anita Shreve who might come close to Jodi Picoult.......it's just that Jodi is a hard one to top!

I thought of a few more that might be simular. Chris Bohjalian he wrote " Midwives", that was a really good book!
Eileen Goudge
Nevada Barr
Tami Hoag (she's more mystery/romance though)
Nancy Price author of " Sleeping with the Enemy" that was made into a movie starring Julia Roberts.
Oh and one of my favorites " A Thousand Acres" by Jane Smiley. I hope that helps?
