I usually enjoy reading Jodi Picoult's books, though the topics are often difficult, she writes in such a way that you wonder how you would react in the same situation. "Mercy" was not up to the standards Ms. Picoult normally puts forth in her novels. I was intrigued by the subject, however, instead of focusing on the question of mercy killing, and how you would handle a similar situation, a majority of the book was about Cam MacDonald, the sheriff of Wheelock, Mass and his affair...It's not a terrible book, just not up to Picoult's usual standards.
