Picoult's characters are so compelling that the reader hopes this won't be the last time we meet (USA Today)
"This is the book you will want to read this summer -- Salem Falls is one of those books you can't put down. On every page there is a twist, a revelation, a surprise, a pay-off, placing it firmly in the category of Page-Turner -- It has romance, heartbreak, mystery, spookiness, and even a good dose of moral dilemmas - everything a good novel needs." -- Ann Hood, Providence Journal
"Secrets, slowly revealed, are what makes this novel compelling -- Right when the reader feels s/he has figured out all the mysteries and tied up the last loose string, Picoult leaves one final surprise for the last paragraph." -- BookPage
