7. Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult
Jodi Picoult is another of my favorite authors and I’ve read most of her books. They are very detailed and usually of a serious nature. This book was one of the first I read and addresses the scary topic of a school shooting. After a tragedy strikes a small New Hampshire town, the legal battle begins as fingers are pointed and reconciliation is sought. This is a difficult book to read but is very rewarding. Picoult has tens of additional novels that you will also love.
