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.

Not the best picoult book.
Such a wonderful book
I read alot if books my favorite authors include but are definitely not limited to, Steven king, dean koontz, Nora Roberts, j.k Rowling, and of course ms.Jodi picoult :) my librarian introduced me to her books my freshman year of high school and I was immediately addicted. Nineteen minutes was my first Jodi picoult treasure I enjoyed it so much I now have a small collection of her book. She's an amazing writer and I highly recommend this book.
