Book Cover: House Rules by Jodi Picoult
I love Jodi Picoult’s books and her latest, House Rules, which is due out on 27th April 2010 sounds as if it’s going to be another fantastic read. I love the simplistic nature of the cover and can’t wait until the book is out. Here’s the synopsis:
Jacob Hunt is a teenager: brilliant at maths, wicked sense of humour, extraordinarily organised, hopeless at reading social cues. And Jacob has Asperger’s. He is locked in his own world – aware of the world outside, and wanting to make a connection. Jacob tries to be like everyone else, but doesn’t know how.
When his tutor is found dead, all the hallmark behaviours of Jacob’s syndrome – not looking someone in the eye, odd movements, inappropriate actions – start looking a lot like guilt to the police. And Jacob’s mother must ask herself the hardest question in the world: is her child capable of murder?

Is this the UK or the US cover? Can’t say it’s my favourite (too simple & way too much green), but at least the plot sounds interesting!

I just finished an ARC of this and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I need to sit with it for a bit. The cover is very true to the story.
