Jodi Picoult
I think...she said finally, that all of us have got our ghosts.
Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
Your hand fits mine like the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle
Jodi Picoult
I imagine the touch of someone who loves you so much, he cannot bear to watch you sleep and so you wake up with his hand on your heart.
Jodi Picoult
My first job was as an assistant in the local library. Self fulfilling prophecy?
Jodi Picoult
